On Saturday, February 19, 2022, join Friends of James Weldon Johnson Park for JWJ’s Hip Hop Festival: Lifting Duval’s Legendary Voices - a celebration to honor Black History Month in a unique and authentic way, by teaching the next generation the (core) pillars of Hip Hop. JWJ’s Hip Hop Festival will be a platform to educate, illuminate, and acknowledge ALL the elements that encompass Hip Hop in our city – past, present, and future. The festival will feature performances by some of Jacksonville's best Emcees, Lyricists, DJs, Hip Hop Dancers and Graffiti Artists; a panel discussion with noted Hip Hop Anthropologist Dr. Melissa Hargrove alongside members of Duval’s Hip Hop Community; interactive participation of Hip Hop Dance and Community Art with kids of all ages; food trucks; and much more to highlight and celebrate the many aspects of Hip Hop Culture.
