Youth Matinee - The Quilt: A Living History of African American Music

Youth Matinee - The Quilt: A Living History of African American Music

Learn about the music genres that come from African American history and culture in this youth matinee film screening that also includes a live movement and drumming activity with dancer Tanesha Payne and percussionist T’Bow Gonzalez.

This Carver Youth Matinee Series event is in partnership with the San Antonio African American Community Archive & Museum as well as the producers of “The Quilt”, Musical Bridges Around the World. The film is an educational documentary recommended for ages 8+ that explores the music genres born and formed by African American history and culture and how music of the past connects with that of the present, just like the layers of a quilt.
