B. Slade headlines Lincoln Theatre's Annual North Star Concert Next Month

The Lincoln Theatre Association welcomes four-time Grammy Award-nominated artist B.Slade to its main stage for its annual North Star Concert. The concert, which will also feature local ensemble Gregory Watkins and The Worship & Praise Chorale, will be held Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. at the Lincoln Theatre, located at 769 E. Long St.

 

The North Star Concert is made possible from a PNC Foundation grant through the PNC Arts Alive initiative that challenges visual and performing arts organizations to put forth their best, most original thinking to expand audience participation and engagement. Additional support is provided by Marlon Moore Consulting.

 

The concert promises to be an uplifting evening of positivity and hope through music and the arts. As the North Star is a symbol of guidance and hope, so the Lincoln Theatre Association’s North Star Concert offers a beacon of light and life to our community.

 

Tickets start at $37 and can be purchased at www.LincolnTheatreColumbus.com or by phone at (614) 469-0939.
