ABOUT CONCERT OF COLORS: Over its significant 30 year history, the Concert of Colors in Detroit has grown into a celebrated, beloved summer festival. It started in response to the horrific murder of Vincent Chin – as an effort to bridge cultural differences through arts, music, culture and conversation. Today it is one of the few remaining large-scale, free-admission music festivals in the area.
