DocFest Fall Benefit Concert, Celebrating Al Jarreau…Starring Chris Walker & Friends, was a huge success!
The full house concert took place on September 7th, in the new state-of-the-art Denney Theatre, located in Kinder High School for Performing and Visual Arts (HSPVA), downtown Houston. DocFest celebrated Al Jarreau & special guests, a Kinder HSPVA Hall of Fame induction and a surprise proclamation delivered by Mayor Sylvester Turner. The evening was MAGICAL!

Keith Vivens, Class of ’80, was inducted by DocFest into the Kinder HSPVA Hall of Fame. David Craig, one of last year’s recipients, presented the award.
Robert “Doc” Morgan received a proclamation from the Mayor Sylvester Turner. He proclaimed September 7th, 2019 as Robert “Doc” Morgan day in the City of Houston!
Celebrating Al Jarreau…Starring Chris Walker & Friends was magical and healing!
Among those attending the concert was Al Jarreau’s close friends, fans and family (including Al’s son, Ryan). To complete this celebration, Chris invited everyone to the stage! There is no doubt that Al was right there with us!
