INDIANA---"Journey to freedom" is the theme of this year's
Art & Soul series, the 20th annual edition of
Black History Month performances at the Indianapolis Artsgarden. Throughout February, musicians, dancers, visual artists and spoken-word artists will commemorate the struggles and triumphs of African-Americans. All 17 events begin at 12:15 p.m. Admission is free. Historically, "journey to freedom" might refer to the slavery era (1619 to 1965) or years leading up to the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and beyond. [
