ABOUT WALKER WEST’S RONDO COMMUNITY MUSIC SERIES
In 1956, more than 600 African-American families, including businesses and institutions living in the Rondo neighborhood of Saint Paul, lost their homes to the construction of the new I-94 highway cutting across the United States. Rondo’s disaggregation was part of a national movement that upended thousands of Black, immigrant, and poor communities to make room for more seamless coast-to-coast automobile transportation. Home to such artists as Gordon Parks, August Wilson, Roberta Davies, and Bobby Lyles, the Rondo neighborhood produced and inspired artists and musicians who would go on to national fame. The Rondo Community Music Series, presented by Walker West Music Academy, showcases a current generation of artists who continue to be inspired by Rondo’s history, cultural expression, and resilience. The Rondo Community Music Series presents a variety of musicians and artists from September 2023 through April 2024.
