Monthly Pop Up Events @ Brooklyn Grange

Sunday, August 13th

11am - 1pm

Brooklyn Grange @ Sunset Park

850 Third Avenue Rooftop, Brooklyn, NY 11232

The Black August event acknowledges and commemorates the countless organizers, activists, and freedom fighters who sacrificed their freedom and lives in the struggle for Black liberation. As a bi-coastal company based in Lenapehoeking / NYC and Hawaiʻi, we are also aware of the connection between colonization, capitalism, and social injustice across the oceans and land. Our artists will share works-in-progress from the weeklong Social Justice Creative Lab to address institutionalized and internalized racism, and explore ways to collectively build the road to liberation.

All proceeds will be donated to directly support Nā ʻAikāne O Maui Cultural Center, a nonprofit organization that services the Native Hawaiian Community, leads the landback movement, and housed important cultural artifacts that are lost in the recent Lāhaina fire.

$20 Suggested Donation at the event

This program is made possible with support by Dance NYC, A.R.T NY, Brooklyn Grange and Ladies of Hip Hop
