DON’T LOSE HEART

Maurice J. Norman presents: Don’t Lose Heart

Saturday, November 2 | 7PM
 
Don’t Lose Heart is poetry in motion, centered on the individuals who are ever-present but often overlooked until they’re gone. The people we’ve deemed the furniture of our small towns, perched in their rocking chairs or tending to their tulips. The walking time machines and living memory keepers, who have helped weave the social fabrics of our local communities.
 
Don’t Lose Heart is a spellbinding storytelling event interweaving the author’s cross-continental story with the lives and legacies of the residents of Smithville, one of the largest, in-tact, historic Black communities in Mecklenburg County.
 
Maurice J. Norman, accompanied by a live quintet from the Charlotte Strings Collective, invites you to experience and immortalize local history, as recounted by those who built its foundations.
 
Buy your Don’t Lose Heart tickets now and look forward to an unforgettable experience that will have you entranced and inspired.
