The Klein in Bridgeport is excited to announce the return of Footsteps of Peace! This highly acclaimed concert features the multitalented musician, Joel A. Martin along with 65 other musicians in jazz, classical, rap and gospel music. 

Footsteps is a national initiative for peace in our communities and the eradication of racism, which is celebrated in performances of original music, singing, art and the spoken word. The concert will both enlighten and entertain throughout.

Each year Footsteps pays tribute to a world humanitarian. This year we will be honoring the first African-American Justice of Supreme Court, Thurgood Marshall. Justice Marshall was a civil rights activist and was instrumental in ending legal segregation. 

"We make movies about Malcom X, we get a holiday to honor Dr. Martin Luther King, but everyday we live with the legacy of Justice Thurgood Marshall,"  The Washington Afro American Newspaper, 1993

Performing alongside Mr. Martin include:

  • Eugene Friesen, Cellist
  • Jolie Rocke Brown, Gospel Jazz Singer
  • Sharon Clark, Jazz Singer
  • With Special Guest Artists: Roshay and AJ, an 18 year old Puerto Rican Rap duo from MA with a positive "Stop the Violence" message
  • The concert will also feature Josie Nadeau, Live Visual Artist and MANY MORE! 

The change starts with you! Join us for what's been called "Woodstock with a Masters Degree" and be part of the change you want to see!
