There's a serious shindig going down in BTV next Friday, all of it run by the breakdancing academy / hip hop community hub Swan Dojo. The team at Swan Dojo have had a great 2017 run and now they're looking to give back in a big way.
"Building Blocks" is an all ages hip hop party. B-Boy Wish and DJ Headphone Monk are both evangelists for the four elements, and all of them will be represented here. Naturally, there's going to be a breakdancing competition, as well as showcase performances from Rhythm Riderz Crew and the Swan Dojo B-Kidz team. Anthill Collective will be there workshopping a black book session for aspiring graf artists. There will be MC cyphers throughout the evening, as well as a set featuring Jarv and Mister Burns, fresh off their epic Food For Thought Tour.
In other words, a jam-packed community shindig. And it's all for a great cause, too. All proceeds are going to (local!) charity and they'll also be collecting food & clothing. Safe to say more than half of the Vermont hip hop scene will be in attendance, so, you know, be there.
6-10 pm. 19 Church Street.
$10 entrance OR $5 with donation item of non-perishable food/article of warm clothing.
