The Art of Protest Special Presentation:

OCTOBER 6-8, 2023

Reginald Mobley, curator

This fall, Seraphic Fire will present a community concert featuring newly commissioned arrangements of protest songs from varied cultural traditions and movements. Music has long been intertwined with protest, from the coded messages of songs like “Wade in the Water” that helped slaves escape to freedom to songs like “We Shall Not be Moved” that rallied crowds during protests in the U.S. union and civil rights movements. Curated and hosted by longtime Seraphic Fire artist Reginald Mobley, this free concert and community discussion will explore the right to free expression and how artists challenge the status quo through song. This program is made possible by

Free Admission
