📅 Saturday, September 27, 2025
📍 The Iron Works Theater, Downtown Petersburg
Get ready for the fall event of the year—a monumental evening of music, dance, and community upliftment!
Native son Olamina returns home with his legendary band, The Awareness Art Ensemble (AAE). Known for their powerful fusion of spoken word, reggae, and conscious music, AAE first emerged from Petersburg in the late ’70s and went on to gain national and international recognition. Their unique brand of uplifting, high-energy, spiritually rooted reggae guarantees an unforgettable night of joy and freedom.
✨ Also performing:
The Tunji Band – another Petersburg favorite, bringing soulful grooves that will move your spirit.
JAH-I-Witness Emcee – son of Olamina, delivering lyrically conscious hip-hop that bridges generations.
This is more than a concert—it’s a family reunion, a celebration of life, and a homegrown musical legacy. Join us for a night of fun, love, community, and the unifying rhythms of reggae and hip-hop.
🎟️ Don’t miss it. Come one, come all—let’s make it a dance night at the theater!
