The school year is underway at UNC, and that means the campus events calendar is also kicking into high gear. Carolina Performing Arts is launching its new season with a show by Renee Fleming in October – and they’ve also just announced the full lineup for an inaugural festival called “All. Together. Now.” which will take place February 19-21 with performances by comedian Josh Johnson, an immersive show called Utopian Hotline at the Morehead Planetarium, opening gatherings with the NC Hip Hop Cypher and the North Carolina Folk Play Project, a film showcase at the Varsity Theater, and more.

Visit CarolinaPerformingArts.org for the full lineup.
