Name: Lois J. Wright Memorial Concert Series
Historical Note: Wendell G. Wright started the Young Artists Series at St. Katherine's Episcopal Church, Baltimore, in the spring of 1977. This soon evolved into the Lois J. Wright Memorial Concert Series, named for Wright's first wife, who passed away that year. The Concert Series encouraged and supported performances by minority classical musicians.
