About this Event
Night At The Sir John’s Knight Beat
Launched in 2025 during the Center’s 50th anniversary and in celebration of Black History Month, this event was curated by artist in residence, Daniel Washington. It pays homage to venues like Sir John’s Knight Beat and others on the Chitlin' Circuit—vital spaces for Black musicians during Jim Crow segregation, when mainstream venues excluded them. These clubs served as cultural havens where legends like Art Blakey, Miles Davis, Billie Holiday, and others shaped jazz’s legacy, performing for passionate audiences in Miami’s vibrant cultural scene.
