Black Joy in the Springtime presented by the Dr. M. T. Pope House


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sat, 05/09/2026
The Dr. M.T. Pope House presents "Tiny Museum: Black Joy in the Springtime", celebrating Black music and culture through the lens of the Pope Family's parlor. Music played a central role in American family life during the 19th and early 20th centuries, long before the advent of television and cellphones. African American households embraced music as a powerful means of self-expression. Through gospel, jazz, blues, and classical music, African Americans found a way to share their stories, joys, and sorrows. 'Black Joy in the Springtime' highlights this rich musical heritage at one of Raleigh's historic African American homes. Enjoy a delightful musical performance by Shenette Swann.
