The truly is the “music” in Music for the Movement and we’re so thankful for their partnership once again! They are an organization that exists to eliminate the industry’s challenge to find culturally diverse music creators, music supervisors, sound engineers and musicians and to dispel misconceptions about the stylistic range of any minority composer. They do that by increasing visibility to industry producers and creatives via networking opportunities and performances. Offering education and mentorship to emerging composers in underserved communities. And by serving the community through music.

Join us for The Second Annual Music for the Movement. A benefit concert supporting Greenline’s mission to close the racial wealth gap through homeownership. It will be a wonderful evening of listening, learning, and storytelling. There will be music, food, drink, special guests, and so much more.

Tickets are on sale now.

Centennial Exposition: 100 Objects in 100 Days, Day 74, Chariot Race Pennant, January 1, 1914; 2018-010-001; Gift of Mary Aal, Costumes and Textiles Collection

The first New Year’s Day college football game following the Tournament of Roses® Parade was held at Tournament Park in 1902. Michigan famously won the game against Stanford with a score of 49-0. With such disappointing results, the Tournament began looking for alternative post-parade activities. The president of the Tournament came up with the idea of staging ancient Roman-style chariot races. From 1904 through 1915, toga-wearing charioteers drove four-horse teams around a dirt track in front of thousands of spectators. These races were not only expensive to produce but also very dangerous. Football games were reinstated in 1916 and have continued ever since. This pennant and a few pictures of the races are wonderful reminders of this unusual chapter in Tournament history.
