Lone Star College-North Harris will host a riveting performance by pianist Jade Simmons on Thursday, March 8 at 2:45 p.m. The free event will be held in the college’s Performing Arts Theater and is open to the public.

Simmons, a local artist, has recently performed at the White House and been named “Best Arts Ambassador” by the Houston Press. She was also the first runner-up in the 2000 Miss America Pageant.

Her performances feature an uncommon display of passion and innovation at every turn, making her one of the most exciting and versatile artists on the scene today. Simmons, who holds a master’s degree from Rice University, combines her classical music talent with interesting, personal commentary to engage audiences.
