Join us for the 2026 Annual “Let The Children Play” Scholarship Dinner & Concert as we celebrate 111 years of the Conrad O. “Prof” Johnson legacy.
This special evening, 1 Man, 1 Band, 1 Legacy, honors the life, vision, and enduring influence of Conrad O. Johnson through music, history, and the generations he inspired. The program will feature the Kashmere Reunion Stage Band, as seen in the acclaimed documentary ThunderSOUL, with special guests Joe Carmouche and Kyle Turner.
More than a celebration, Let The Children Play supports the Conrad O. Johnson Music & Fine Arts Foundation’s Education & Outreach Fund, helping provide scholarships, music education, mentorship, performance opportunities, and access to professional artists for young musicians across the Houston area.
