Songs of Protest

Aug 15, 2026, 7:30 PM – 9:30 PM – $25

We’re celebrating the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence with an evening of American protest music. From the Revolutionary War to 2026, this music has been a vibrant part of our democracy. You’ll hear selections by Dylan, Chapman, Ochs, Mitchell, Chapman, and Springsteen, to name a few. Performers include Missy Alexander, Caroline Bennett, Bob Brophy, Chuck Cundari, Nancy Janutalo, George Mallas, Susanna Marker, Felicia Michael, George Potts, Nancy Walsh, and Al Burgasser.

Nadine Strossen, Civil Liberties activist and past president of the ACLU, will provide introductory remarks.
