The Journey: Breaking Barriers is a new multi-disciplinary stage production, in collaboration with Ohio Humanities, featuring Columbus-based artists, dancers, spoken word poets, musicians, and vocalists, illuminating the fight for educational equity in the United States. The production will tell the lesser-known stories of those who courageously challenged segregation in schools, focusing on the Lincoln School Marchers in Hillsboro, Ohio, and the broader resistance to integration in Columbus. Despite the landmark Brown v. Board of Education ruling in 1954, many Ohio communities resisted desegregation into the 1960s and 70s. This production will preserve and amplify these critical stories, allowing them to resonate with today’s audiences.

The Journey: Breaking Barriers builds on the success of The Journey: Civil Rights, which won the 2023 Greater Columbus Arts Council Columbus Makes Art Excellence Award, and will continue the tradition of using the arts to tell underrepresented stories.
