Langston's harlem nights
Pictures from the Langston's Harlem Nights fundraiser. Nearly all photos taken by Providence's own Justin Case.
To keep our work going, the LHCPR Committee held a Langston's Harlem Nights fundraiser in November 2023 at Machine & Magnets, 400 Main St. Pawtucket, RI.
​​
In the spirit of the Harlem Renaissance, it was an old-fashioned rent party with a jazzy, dress up, high-style-nightclub feel. Several understood the assignment and showed up in style! There was live jazz music grooved to from the Leland Baker Trio, a Best Dressed competition, heavy hors d’oeuvres with mac n' cheese balls, wings of multiple flavors and other delicious treats from Chef Tarik. There was also displayed art that brought us back in time, period drinks and mocktails including Langston's favorite Hot Daddy creation as well as surprise musical performances, poetry and so much more. We were just shy of our $30,000 fundraising goal, but you can keep those donations coming by clicking the button above.

It was THE cultural immersion event of the Fall, so we are having it again this year! Learn more here.
