Join Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.® Phi Beta Omega Chapter and Arcadia University’s Department of Pan African Studies for an intimate evening as we pay tribute to the Harlem Renaissance Period. We will be featuring the incomparable Sherry & the SWB Jazz Eclectics as they take us from the musical stylings of Duke Ellington and Fats Waller to current day jazz greats. Guests will be immersed into the Harlem Renaissance with a live art show by the students of Cheyney University while sitting back and enjoying entertainment in our own “Cotton Club.”

This will be a lively, entertaining, and educational evening providing awareness of visual and performing arts during the Harlem Renaissance--and its influence on contemporary African American arts and culture.
