Dancing

After 5 Fridays | Summer Breeze x Dance After Work

Celebrate Juneteenth and Black Music Month with an evening of art and music that flows between lively indoor energy and relaxed outdoor vibes. In the Cochrane Atrium, hip hop line dancing takes center stage as Kemel Patton, known as the line dance king, teaches the latest routines alongside enduring favorites. Step outside to the Pauley Patio and enjoy the open air and the surrounding sculpture garden while Aliyah the DJ spins a blend of R&B classics, hip hop, soul, and house, mixing new tunes with old school gems. Move between spaces at your own pace, switch between freestyle and line dancing, and choose the setting that suits your mood, inside or out.
