Martin Luther King Jr. would have been 93 years old this weekend, and as the nation celebrates his legacy, the St. Petersburg Alumni Singers—three Gibbs High School grads (class of 1957) and members of the school’s St. Cecelia Choir—turn the late civil rights leader’s words into gospel. Performances from Straz Center’s Arts Legacy Series are always free, and this one happening on Friday, Jan. 13 inside Teco Theater also features jazz vocalist Fred Johnson.
