Night at the jubilee theatre

CAAS Night at the Jubilee Theatre took place in early February. This was CAAS’ first major fundraiser! The Jubilee Theatre is a historic playhouse in downtown Fort Worth in Sundance Square that spotlights past and present features of the African American experience.

A sold out audience watched a performance of the play Detroit ‘67. CAAS is especially thankful that Larry Kemp and Maurice Barksdale—two highly influential UTA alums—donated funds to “buy out the theatre.” With their support, CAAS surpassed its goal of raising $4000! These funds will be used to enhance our programming, develop our academic curriculum, and assist the broader community.

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THE CENTER FOR AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDIES!

Please continue to support the historic Jubilee Theatre!
