Grown from the Concrete: how youth and hip hop is shaped by the built environment
About this Event

There are four traditional pillars of hip hop that make up the fundamentals of the culture -- Breaking, MCing, DJing, and Graffiti. Each of these pillars was founded in urban environments from Black and Latino communities – fostering generations of artists grown from the concrete (in the words of Tupac Shakur) -- and they now spread to every corner of the world. Hip hop culture is inseparable from the physical spaces where it was born, and architecture and urban spaces continue to shape the ways in which hip hop artists create, perform, and engage with their communities.

What stories of space and place are told through hip hop culture? What are the traces of hip hop in architecture?

Join us for a 90-minute workshop unpacking the evolution and the legacy of hip hop and urban space, through rap, music, and interactive activities.

This is a free workshop for teenagers aged 12 – 17. Snacks will be provided.

11am – 12:30pm Workshop in English

1pm – 2:30pm Workshop in French
