“It’s a simple concept, just a person in a chair behind a small table. But what happens at the stand is something far more meaningful. We are offering a moment of comfort and perspective from someone who has lived enough life to share a little wisdom,” said Andrew Jones, Director of the Cultural District. “In a world that can often feel overwhelming, sometimes the best thing a person can offer is a simple conversation and a listening ear.”

2023 – death of Tina Turner, American-Swiss rock and pop singer, dancer, actress and author. Tina Turner (born Anna Mae Bullock; November 26, 1939 – May 24, 2023) was a singer, songwriter, actress and author. Dubbed the "Queen of Rock 'n' Roll", she broke both racial and gender barriers in rock music with her vocal prowess and stage presence. She is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, with estimated sales of over 100 million records worldwide. Turner rose to prominence in the 1960s as the lead vocalist of the R&B husband-wife duo Ike & Tina Turner, known for their explosive live performances with the Ikettes and Kings of Rhythm. The duo achieved chart success with songs including "A Fool In Love," "River Deep – Mountain High," "Proud Mary," and "Nutbush City Limits." After separating from Ike Turner in 1976, she launched a solo career. Following the 1983 hit "Let's Stay Together," she made a comeback with her multi-platinum fifth solo album, Private Dancer (1984). The single "What's Love Got to Do with It" won the Grammy Award for Record of the Year in 1985 and became her only number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100. Turner's Break Every Rule World Tour became the highest-grossing tour by a female artist in the 1980s, and her 1988 concert in Rio de Janeiro set a Guinness World Record for the then-largest paying audience in a concert by a solo artist. Turner received 12 Grammy Awards, including a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award and three Grammy Hall of Fame inductions. In 1967, she became the first black artist and the first woman to appear on the cover of Rolling Stone in 1967, which later ranked her among the greatest artists and greatest singers of all time.
