Wallace and Williams and Friends

Join the Center for a special Patio Sessions celebrating five decades of extraordinary artistry at the legendary Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts. For 50 years, our next-door neighbor in the Dallas Arts District has nurtured generations of artists, earning its reputation as one of the nation’s premier arts magnet schools. This special anniversary performance brings the Booker T. community to Sammons Park for an evening of live music, including jazz, showcasing the talent that has defined the school for half a century. Principal and jazz vocalist Garry Williams and Director of Vocal Studies Andrea Wallace, a Booker T. alum known for blending jazz, gospel, and R&B, will take the stage alongside alumni and students for a celebration of Booker T.’s remarkable past, present, and future.
