R-E-S-P-E-C-T!
For this year's block party, we are celebrating the influential women of our past and present with an evening full of FREE live music, family fun and an outdoor movie.
Music
A Tribute to Aretha Franklin with Hazel Miller and Guests | 6:00 p.m.
There's no better female to represent "The Queen of Soul" than our local female favorite, Hazel Miller! Hazel will be delivering a thoughtfully crafted, powerful and empowering show to honor the infamous singer, songwriter, pianist, and civil rights activist from Detroit, Michigan.
Movie
Hidden Figures | 9 p.m.
Three brilliant African-American women at NASA -- Katherine Johnson (Taraji P. Henson), Dorothy Vaughan (Octavia Spencer) and Mary Jackson (Janelle Monáe) -- serve as the brains behind one of the greatest operations in history: the launch of astronaut John Glenn (Glen Powell) into orbit, a stunning achievement that restored the nation's confidence, turned around the Space Race and galvanized the world.
