Music as a Global Language

Music and food are global languages; they require no translation. Music and food are the best diplomats in a world often fractured by geo-politics. And this evening’s program will offer both! This will be a unique program by the Indiana Council on World Affairs, and one we take great pleasure in offering to our community. Musical selections from Latin America, China and Africa will take the audience to far reaches of our world, and musical artists will tell the stories behind the instruments and the notes.

Music will fill the air from the moment you enter the Indy Global Village. Other artists and performing companies will showcase their services while you network with friends and professionals and visit the Global Village’s unique international museum including a feature on international instruments.

Doors open at 5 p.m. for a reception with a cash bar where guests can network and browse the exhibits in the International Museum.  A dinner featuring global cuisine selections from specialty restaurants on Indianapolis’ diverse west side will be served 6 p.m. Tickets for the dinner are $30 and $10 for students.

The program will begin at 7 p.m. and include a panel discussion with audience engagement while with members of the city’s arts community showcasing their services and events.

Music as a Global Language is sponsored by International Center Festival Fund, Indy Global Village, Indianapolis Foundation and Harrison Center. For more information or to register for the event, visit indianacouncilonworldaffairs.wildapricot.org/event-5985367.
