Sounds of the Pythodd: Clarissa Uprooted Open House In-Person
Please join us for an open house at the Clarissa Uprooted exhibit featuring live music from the Nate Rawls Quartet!
Travel back in time as the band performs on a replica of the iconic Pythodd stage and learn about a vital part of Rochester’s past as you explore the history of the city’s once thriving African American residential and business corridor, Clarissa Street.
