Once New York's most fashionable neighborhood, Harlem has a fascinating story to tell. Stroll through the lovely and elegant enclave, Sugar Hill, where famous musicians like Duke Ellington once lived. See the legendary Apollo Theater and the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture. Witness the beautiful acapella sounds of the ARC Gospel choir during our mid-week hour of power and hear their powerful voices singing songs of praise and share their experience.
ARC stands for Addicts Rehabilitation Center, the oldest drug-free treatment program center in New York State. The ARC Gospel choir was formed to help finance treatments for the people in the community to recover from drugs.
