Grammy-nominated musician Luther Dickinson and his collaborators from across the South perform a concert of original compositions inspired by Walter Inglis Anderson's landmark 3,000 square foot murals in the Ocean Springs Community Center at the Walter Anderson Museum of Art. The concert pays homage to the Southern land and the region's blues, funk, soul, and jazz traditions. Two family educational components on Southern material culture and music accompany the performance.
