Emporia Arts Council Presents: The Doo Wop Project, February 29th at the Emporia Granada Theatre · 7:00pm

The Doo Wop Project starts at the beginning, tracing the inception of group singing developed by inner city African Americans performing tight harmonies on a street corner to the biggest hits on the radio today!

The Doo Wop Project brings unparalleled authenticity of sound and vocal excellence to recreate – and in some cases entirely reimagine – some of the greatest music in American pop and rock history!

Tickets available at the Emporia Arts Center, 815 Commercial St. or online at emporiaksarts.org

Thank you to our Major Presenting Sponsor Mitchell-Markowitz Construction and Event Underwriter ESB Financial

It’s that time of year again where we have Project Share the Love!

Every year we ask for any and all to drop off handmade Valentine’s to brighten the day of some of our most deserving. This year we are asking for 300 Valentine’s to give to the residents of Sunflower Care Homes of Emporia, Homestead of Emporia Assisted Living, Emporia Presbyterian Manor, and Flint Hills Care and Rehabilitation Center. Kids and adults alike are encouraged to dig into their Valentine artistry that was honed in grade school and make a little statement of love for those that need it!

Drop off at Emporia Arts Center, 815 Commercial inside the building in the Big Valentine Mailbox. Last day for Valentines, Saturday, February 10th before we close at 3:00pm.
