The webinar is part of Tuesday Musical’s 2021 activities featuring Sphinx, a Detroit-based national organization dedicated to transforming lives through the power of diversity in the arts.
Performing annually at Carnegie Hall and Miami’s New World Center, Sphinx Virtuosi will close Tuesday Musical’s 2021 Akron Concert Series with a performance at EJ Thomas Hall on May 26.
Support for the webinar and Tuesday Musical’s Sphinx activities comes, in part, from the Arts Midwest Touring Fund, a program of Arts Midwest that is funded by the National Endowment for the Arts, with additional contributions from the Ohio Arts Council and the Crane Group.
Founded in 1887, Tuesday Musical presents concerts in Akron by world-acclaimed musicians and education and community engagement programs throughout northeast Ohio. It also presents an annual scholarship competition for music students studying at universities and colleges in Ohio and monthly music programs for its members.
Founded in 1974, the Ohio Alliance for Arts Education works to ensure that the arts are an integral part of the education of every Ohioan.
