The Best Legacy celebration in Bloomington, Indiana

The African American Arts Institute, located at 275 North Eagleson Avenue in Bloomington, Indiana, is a vibrant hub of cultural expression and artistic talent at Indiana University. Students at IU have the opportunity to perform with the renowned African American Choral Ensemble, African American Dance Company, and IU Soul Revue, all under the umbrella of the AAAI. After 34 years of dedicated service, Charles E. Sykes, D.M.E., will retire as the executive director of the AAAI, leaving behind a lasting legacy of creativity and uniqueness. The institute plays a crucial role in the cultural landscape of Indiana University, thanks in part to Charles' influence and contributions.
