Designated Emphases
Collaborative Space Curation
The intentional design of environments where artists, scholars, and communities can gather without the usual hierarchies or commercial pressures.
Interdisciplinary Art
Creative work that honors the way communities have always created — making new by mixing and remixing forms.
Cross-Genre Experimentation
The practice of moving freely between and beyond established artistic categories, to follow our creative impulses across Hip Hop, jazz, R&B, the blues, spoken word, and more.
In the Lab
Research Collaborations
Interdisciplinary research groups that connect scholars, artists, and community members to explore art, health, and the humanities.
Archival Projects
Sonic installations that capture the frequencies and rhythms of everyday life, from underground performances to layered conversations at neighborhood block parties. What does it mean to record history?
Community Listening Sessions
Gatherings and lectures featuring leading academics and artists deeply invested in documenting the creative process and the conditions that allow for transformative art-making.
