The First Lady of Denver’s Bringing Back the Arts
Denver’s First Lady, Ms. Mary Louise Lee, is presenting the “Bringing Back the Arts” music competition at the Bluebird Theater on April 14th at 6:30 p.m.
Students of Denver Public Schools submitted their songs to KS107.5 in March, and the finalists from that competition will perform live at the Bluebird Theater on April 14, and have a chance to win $1,000 cash, an opportunity to record a KBCO Studio C Session, a live radio interview, and an opening gig for an upcoming show at the Bluebird.
Ms. Lee, well known throughout Denver’s performing arts district, opted not to change her last name when she married Mayor Hancock, stating, “I come with my own identity.” Lee, a Denver native, has been singing and performing since the age of three, and has been an advocate for children for more than 15 years in Denver. Ms. Lee has been encouraging children to make positive choices in life, and guiding them toward careers in the performing arts.
This is the second year for the “Bringing Back the Arts” concert. It is a fundraising initiative, inaugurated last spring with the intent to grow Denver Public Schools’ arts and music programs, and will feature some of Denver’s most talented young musicians.
This is a FREE event. Tickets are available on at www.axs.com, or www.bluebirdtheater.net, or charge by phone at 888-929-7847.
