With roots dating back to the foundation of our nation, Gospel music has been traditionally passed down through generations. This genre has carried African American stories and communities through slavery to present day and has been a vital vehicle for political and social change. As Koryn Hawthorne said “There are no ceilings to this Genre. Gospel music is made for ALL people inside and outside of the church.” Please check in for more details on Instagram and Facebook at MiddlesexCountyCulture. Check back soon for more exciting updates as the lineup develops!
