Christina Cultural Arts Center and Point Blank invite you to celebrate a night of new music as the group releases its latest CD, SoulStream. 

 Dara Stevens-Meredith is a member of the Christina Dance Faculty, serving with distinction for 7 years. She will present her work, "Concrete Rose," to complete her Masters in Fine Art from Temple University.  It is a five-section piece inspired by Tupac Shakur's poems "The Rose That Grew From Concrete," and "Can You See the Pride in the Panther?" It sheds light on diverse themes, including "crabs in a barrel syndrome," but has a mutual theme exploring physicality through an emotional journey of fortitude, envy, resilience, collective efforts and determined success, that permeates the entire work. The performance also features Eleone Dance Theatre.
