About this Event

For more than three decades, Penn State Harrisburg's School of Humanities has honored Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. with an annual play that links art and social change. Continuing that 28-year tradition, and once again in partnership with Sankofa African American Theatre Company and Sharing Our Legacy Dance Theatre, we present The Artistry and Activism of Frances Ellen Watkins Harper with TWO PERFORMANCES.
