Get ready for a Marvin Gaye–themed karaoke night celebrating the life and work of the late Ernie Barnes, led by soul singer Torrénce Brannon-reese! This night of song is presented in conjunction with Ernie Barnes: A Retrospective , which includes Barnes’s famous painting The Sugar Shack, which was featured on the cover of Gaye’s I Want You album. Bring your best Motown moves and sing with soul; every willing singer is welcome.
