HYPERLOCAL: BLOCK PARTY

PACT is turning 60 in (street) style.

Hyperlocal: Block Party is a free celebration of community and street artistry. 

DJ Arisse and DJ Black President will be rocking the spot across the afternoon. Riddim Nation will bring the classic Hip Hop dance styles to the floor and you best believe that the solo performances from Lucky Lartey and Demon Derriere will be the definition of fresh!

Something super special for the kids (7-12 years) is our Kids Hip Hop Workshop led by dance legend King Nai of Riddim Nation.

And, there is a free BBQ running throughout the afternoon.  

Please register for the Kids Hip Hop Workshop and also RSVP if you are coming along for the good vibes (so we know how many snags to put on the BBQ).
