Ladysmith Black Mambazo

In 2015, H. Lavity Stoutt Community College had two major reasons to celebrate: It marked its 25th anniversary, and it attained accreditation from the Middle States Commission on Higher Education.

Though the school lauded the accomplishments last year, celebrations will peak on Feb. 23 and 24 during a celebratory concert by Ladysmith Black Mambazo, a Grammy Award-winning group from South Africa.

HLSCC President Dr. Karl Dawson said he hopes the turnout at the two shows will be as successful as the Soweto Gospel Choir’s performance during the college’s 20th anniversary celebrations in 2010.
“That was one of the most successful concerts here at the college,” Dr. Dawson said during a Monday press conference.

For tickets, call Linette Baa at 852-7223 or visit the H. Lavity Stoutt Community College Book Store. Tickets, all of which will be for assigned seats, range in price from $50 to $120.
