On
Wednesday afternoon, Richie Gajate
Garcia was in the Lincoln College
Johnston Center for Performing Arts.
While he is in town to receive an
honorary doctorate at Saturday's LC
commencement, he offered to do a
workshop for music students and the
public.
Garcia has had a long and successful
career performing and/or recording with
a number of well-known artists, has also
worked on movie scores and he teaches.
As a surprise, Garcia announced at the
conclusion of the workshop that all the
brand new professional quality
instruments on stage would be staying as
a gift from him for LC students to use.
Tonight, Friday, May 4, Garcia will be
joined by the other honorary degree
recipient Alex D. “Sandy” MacKinnon from
3 to 5 p.m. for an 'Excellence in
Leadership Panel,' also to be held in
the Johnston Center.
