In a career spanning seven decades, crossing generations and genres—folk, country, pop, rock and roll and more—Judy Collins has become one of America’s most-loved performers. Her beautiful voice and inspired songs of hope and healing have won a place in the hearts of millions of fans. Poet, author, filmmaker and passionate social activist, she continues to build a vital artistic legacy that has made her a cultural force. That legacy has a vibrant presence at the at the Library of Congress, where her personal papers are now part of the collections of the Music Division. And her work has earned the rare distinction of being named to both the Library’s National Film Registry, as co-director of the documentary “Antonia: A Portrait of the Woman,” and by the National Recording Registry, for her luminous 1971 recording of “Amazing Grace.”
Following the concert is a booksigning for Collins’ new volume of poetry, “Sometimes It’s Heaven, Poems of Love, Loss and Redemption” (Andrews McMeel Publishing, March 2025).
This concert is presented in cooperation with the American Folklife Center and in association with WorldPride Washington, DC 2025.
There will be no pre-concert conversation for this event.
Tickets available for this event starting at 10am on Wednesday, March 12th
