LEGACY OF LOVE
A Tribute to Sonie Mathew
On February 9, 2021 BlackRock and the entire DC-area artistic community lost a legacy and friend, Sonie Mathew.
Sonie touched the lives of over a thousand young people in his decade of service to BlackRock education programs who like him, share a passion for theater and music.

Above all else, our thoughts and support go out to Sonie’s family, friends, and students.
