Join us for an inspiring evening of cultural arts, storytelling, music, poetry, and dance in Stone Soup: Unity in the Community.

This original showcase follows the journey of a lonely traveler searching for help to make a simple pot of soup. As the traveler goes door to door, each group contributes not only a food ingredient, but also a piece of their culture through West African drumming and dance, traditional Indian dance, tap, hip hop, poetry, and song.

Together, these offerings transform an empty pot into a communal feast and strangers into a united community.

Through rhythm, movement, and shared traditions, this performance celebrates the power of collaboration, culture, and the truth that when everyone brings something, there is enough for all.
