Proposed Agenda
Request for Proposals (RFP)
Across the country, many Americans are struggling to gain the skills necessary to enter high-skill, high-wage employment. For those facing multiple barriers to education and training - such as single parents, low-income individuals, individuals with disabilities, and those with limited English proficiency - the path to economic security is even more challenging. We encourage you to submit a Request for Proposal to share your great program or practice and to pass on your expertise. More information on workshop content is on the RFP.

The Duke comes home to the Lincoln with Sophisticated Ladies, the award-winning musical revue that explores the legacy of our local jazz hero starring Broadway legend Maurice Hines This glorious re-creation of the big band sound features some of the most memorable music from the Roaring Twenties to the Swing Era, including such classic songs as "It Don't Mean a Thing If It Ain't Got That Swing," "Take the ‘A' Train," "Satin Doll" and the haunting "In a Sentimental Mood." With one show-stopping number after another, this stylish and brassy retrospective travels through a history of American song and dance, from Charleston to swing to virtuosic tap dancing.
