Bed-Stuy’s own Maimouna Keita African Dance Company, It's Showtime NYC!, and Kash Gaines perform a dance program in Von King Park. Bring a blanket and a picnic.

It’s Showtime NYC! performs a highlight from Pyramid, a brand new work by Flexer and artistic director Cal Hunt and composer cellist and bonebreaker Johnathan “Akuma” Moore. The work explores how New Yorkers are, by nature, archaeologists. Be it graffiti, hieroglyphics, or freestyle dance on the street, lived stories are shared to those willing to pause and take in the messages.

Performer/Documentarian Kash Gaines debuts the live premiere of Caged Birds, featuring a cast sharing intimate stories of perilous encounters with law enforcement inside and outside the MTA system.
