The Experience is returning to the stage for its 14th year!  STAINED GLASS is a vibrant and significant strand in the fabric of our community.  Celebrating our 14th Annual Experience, STAINED GLASS 2025 continues to be an integrated collaborative arts concert based on God's Trombones: Seven Negro Sermons in Verse (1927) by James Weldon Johnson (1871-1938, Lift Every Voice and Sing). The sermonic poems, chronicling man's existence from the Creation to Judgment Day, are Interpreted through contemporary, liturgical, and W. African dance performances by Hayiya Dance Theatre, Inc., orators, guest dancers and traditionally a community choir. G. Pilar Lowden, Artistic Director, Christopher Graddick and Reese Kitchens, Music Directors. 

 

As part of our commitment to providing access to the arts for all, the proceeds from STAINED GLASS 2025 will benefit both the Ronnie "RJ" Anderson Memorial Scholarship Fund and our Hayiya, Inc.

Additionally, our Arts Education Programming serves over 3,500 students annually, providing free and reduced-fee arts education, STEAM programs, leadership development through the INfluence Leadership Institute, performance opportunities, free tutoring, and after-school and summer programs for students ages 3 and up.
