About this Event
February 8, 2021 – Houston – Sister Cities of Houston showcases a world of talent in the first annual One World Concert. This free, virtual concert will be broadcast on Thursday, February 25, from 6 – 7pm CST. The theme of this year’s One World Concert is “We Are One” that we believe is fitting at a time when the world must come together to fight a global pandemic.
Mayor Sylvester Turner welcomes listeners to enjoy the free concert. Nelly and Felix Fraga will be honored with the first One World Award for their contributions to global understanding in forming the Houston-Guayaquil Sister City Association and founding the Ambassadors International Folklorico.
Sister Cities of Houston President Susan Young said of this year’s concert, “The global pandemic has made it clearer than ever that humankind shares one planet. It has also given us new tools to connect virtually. But the power of music to connect across boundaries, ages and cultures remains the same.”
