Neighboring Hues: Shades of Belonging

We often say we want to get to know our neighbors, but how do we begin? Who are our neighbors? And how do we make connections with people whose lives may be different from our own? Join us for a powerful storytelling concert presented by Ubuntu Storytellers, an ensemble of professional black, brown and biracial story artists from our community. Through the power of storytelling, they’ll share true stories of their lives to help us gain a deeper understanding of those around us. A Q&A portion will follow the concert so audience members can process what they’ve heard and gain deeper insights.

Registration is required to attend this IN PERSON event.

Sponsored by the Friends of the Blackstone Library and the John Loeb Lecture Fund

About the John Loeb Lecture Fund
The John Loeb Lecture Fund was established in July 2009 in honor of John Loeb’s 90th birthday. John (1919-2014) was a member of the Board of Trustees of the library and was a strong advocate for the library, with his primary focus in his retirement years being the development and administration of the Friends of the Blackstone Library Annual Booksale fundraiser.

The original donors, including John’s wife Rhoda Loeb (1921-2022), established the fund at the Blackstone Library in order to provide lectures for the community in John’s name.
