Trinity Presents... Performance Series
Through the celebration of the performing arts, the Trinity Presents... Performance Series extends the reach of Trinity United Methodist Church’s offering for friendship and fellowship beyond the confines of the local congregation and presents it to the greater Little Rock and central Arkansas areas.
With this goal in mind, the Board of Directors for Trinity Presents... strives to present performances that will appeal to all audiences – both young and old alike. For the past 25 years, we have worked to bring in performers and groups that are uncommon for the Arkansas area. We have welcomed well-known and international performance by the Vienna Choir Boys, Chanticleer, Diane Bish, Dino and Sandi Patti – just to name a few.
As we begin our 26th season, we are very excited to once again bring exceptional artists to Trinity United Methodist Church through the Trinity Presents Performance Series. We begin the season on Sunday, October 14th with Bill Carter and the Presbybops, a Gospel Jazz Quartet; Sunday, November 19th we welcome Arkansas’ own, Jeff Nichols for an evening of discussion with this talented young movie director and filmmaker; our third event will be Sunday, February 10th which will feature Mary Ann Robinson, Scott Stern and David Glaze to get you ready for Valentine’s Day; lastly, we close out our season with the traditional Trinity Presents Collegiate Showcase on Sunday, April 7th.
Mark your calendars now to attend all performances.
