For her Spring concert performance at Weeksville Heritage Center, musician and storyteller Martha Redbone and her ensemble invite the audience to sing along while they perform music spanning the Black American music diaspora, weaving in her own American story through music that celebrates Black and Indigenous shared histories. 

On Saturday, May 16th, BAM’s iconic DanceAfrica Festival returns to Weeksville for A Tribute to the Ancestors! Join us at 10am for this beautiful traditional tribute under the guidance of artistic director Abdel R. Salaam and the DanceAfrica Council of Elders.

In this interactive workshop, you’ll learn how to set goals based on your values, build a budget that works for you, and explore realistic strategies to save for the future.

On June 4th, Black & Free: Pleasure Histories will bring together film, performance, and storytelling to trace the legacies of Black queer and trans life through pleasure, resistance, and self-expression.
