Artists welcome. Sign up here for Beat Street performances.
In person or from the comfort of your home, relive what made Soul Train the experience that we all love and everyone wanted to be a part of - from the waist down!
"Sole Train" is a fully catered installation and fundraising event showcasing DJs, VJs, Artists, and Engineers.
Time after time when we watch people dance, we try to soak in so much that end up breaking the body into two parts, top & bottom.
The most memorable dancers we watch over and over so we can appreciate all that is going on. We are prone to prioritize the top. Sole Train focuses on the bottom half. Prepare your comfiest dancing socks, hose, and freshest house shoes!

Leading into Fall, Beat Street will chose one of our programs to showcase each month. This fall we use Media Art to look at film making, scene design, and music adaptation. By each months end, our students will have made one short scene. Let’s break it down! This project is designed to exercise team work […]
The 60s decor for Beat Street was chosen by design. It was decided that the 1960s played such an integral part on the timeline of documented black history in Africa + North America. The black average life-span was seven years less than whites at that time. Black children had only half the chance of completing […]
