BAM’s corner of Fort Greene transforms into a vibrant celebration of community, discovery and collective joy at the beloved DanceAfrica festival. Hand in hand with the festival's cultural partners—the visionary DanceAfrica Council of Elders, the cultural custodians at Weeksville Heritage Center, our forward-thinking friends at MoCADA and Bed-Stuy stalwart The Billie Holiday Theatre—BAM has assembled an experience guaranteed to open minds and lift spirits.
