Some of Charlottesville’s most talented vocalists take flight at Songbirds & Divas. Ti Ames, Richelle Claiborne (right), and Leslie M. Scott-Jones stir the soul with powerful renditions of songs by Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, Jazmine Sullivan, Destiny’s Child, The Marvelettes, and more. The singers perform both solo sets and as a group in a concert to benefit the Jefferson School African American Heritage Center.
$35-45, 8pm. Jefferson School African American Heritage Center, 233 Fourth St. NW. jeffschoolheritagecenter.org
