The Alchemy of Change: A Parable Becoming, the Convening

April 14, 2019 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Join Toshi Reagon and BigLOVELY for a community song circle, featuring the many people with whom Toshi Reagon has collaborated in her time as a Carolina Performing Arts Mellon Foundation DisTIL fellow. This convening will feature music based on Act 1 of Octavia E. Butler’s Parable Of The Sower, as well as new original songs inspired by Reagon’s time in North Carolina.
