Events open to the local community

Mariachi Monarcas

Dinner performance by Mariachi Monarcas, in observance of National Hispanic Heritage Month. Presented by Student Involvement and Programs and Sin Fronteras.

Angie Lynn concert

With a sunny disposition and a jazz-queen magnetism, Angie carries an infectious rhythm both on and off stage. Even the aching honesty of lyrics like “your sad eyes get me every time” ring with irresistible toe-tapping momentum, the perfect tipping point between melancholy and euphoria. Angie’s voice carries the warmth and soul of a recording on vinyl: well-traveled, utterly timeless, and carrying secrets and promise in every passing glance. Presented by Student Involvement and Programs.
