Northwestern University's Evanston campus will be the site of numerous events scheduled in honor of Black History month.
Most events are free, unless otherwise noted, and are open to the public.
The richness of the African American spirit will be celebrated during a special Black History Month edition of Kids Fare. The program, for children ages 3 to 8 and their families, features legendary bass-baritone William Warfield and the North Park University Gospel Choir, under the direction of Rollo Dilworth. The program will explore how musical ingredients are combined to create that unique gospel sound. Kids Fare programs are supported by Target Stores and Marshall Field's Project Imagine. 7 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 14.
