Arts for Everybody: Go Green Festival | TODB & IMAN Kickback
Think Outside Da Block
Join IMAN staff, Think Outside Da Block Safe Spaces youth employees, community residents, and special guest artists as we celebrate Arts for EveryBody through our work to “reimagine the world as it could be,” by centering the historically disinvested neighborhood of Englewood with a mini-festival in the newly developed Go Green Griot Plaza, a previously abandoned lot.
The Go Green Griot Plaza on 63rd & Racine — an outdoor creative hub connected to Englewood's Go Green Community Fresh Market, designed to foster health and wellness through community partnerships, live events, and artistic programming.
This FREE outdoor celebration will feature Vic Mensa, aja monet, John Forté ft. Binta, Omar Offendum, Brittney Carter, the Chicago Bucket Boys, an outdoor skating rink, a communal drumming circle, live music, storytelling, dance, a double-dutch demo, food samples, cooking demonstrations, a community drum circle, live poetry making, artisans, interactive murals and more! Local vendors and a wellness info table by IMAN’s Community Health workers will be on-site to take part in conversation and community.
