Kennedy Center

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
In 1971, Marvin Gaye captured and commented on the spiritual and cultural chaos of the nation on the recording What’s Going On.
Today, the Kennedy Center has developed a program to explore Marvin Gaye’s music, the social issues that influenced his art, and reveal how those issues may seem as pertinent and influential to young artists today. Using his music as a catalyst, the project is meant to give young people the knowledge and tools to Think, Create, and Connect with their own form of expression– and ask the question, “What’s Going On Now?”
