We are wrapping up our “Hope Nights” Summer series with a tribute to the queen LAURYN HILL on Friday August 19, 2016 @ The Center for Faith and Justice in Berkeley, CA. Come see this one-of-a-kind artistic showcase, where multi-talented artists from all over the Bay Area will perform original work inspired by the genius of Lauryn Hill that has INFLUENCED music and culture GLOBALLY. We will be using the same mediums Lauryn Hill did to reach the masses; poetry, hip-hop, song and live music. We’ve been excited to see the growth of Hope Nights throughout this summer with tributes to Tupac Shakur and Marvin Gaye, but we believe this Tribute to Lauryn Hill will be the biggest and best show thus far.
