The second annual Freedom Classic Festival has been changed to the Arthur Ashe Center in Richmond, VA January 18-20. The event was originally scheduled to be held at the Richmond Coliseum, but was moved due to a fire which occurred last weekend.
The Freedom Classic features a Playground Legend 3-on-3 Classic, Fan Jam, Comedy Show, Cheerleaders' Showcase, and a Gospel Jubilee. Monday night highlights St. Paul's vs. Norfolk State at 6:15 p.m. and Virginia Union vs. Virginia State at 8:30 p.m.
Proceeds from the festival help benefit the Concerned Black Men of Richmond. For more information, call 804.225.7725
