Project Description
The former neighborhood of Dudley Square, renamed to Nubian Square on December 19, 2019, is a community with significant historic roots. The fertile soil laid by artists, musicians, and activists continue to be an inspiration for creativity and growth. Our city's current future overlooks the need for cultural equity and ownership for locals, but together we can change that.
The Block Party will feature a performance of Invisible: Imprints of Racism by Stable Ground Artist-in-Residence Anna Meyer & Dancers / BeHeard.world with Trend Stream and Nubian Squares's inner sanctum.
