Youth on Record's 10th Annual Block Party and Community Celebration will bring together hundreds of community members on June 8th for a day-long youth music festival. Youth on Record’s Block Party is a youth-led and youth-designed event with support from Youth on Record (YOR) Staff. The event will take place from 2pm-7pm at the Youth on Record Studio (1301 W 10th Ave) and neighboring streets. Performances will feature a talented lineup of over 20+ YOR students ages 14-24!
The event is free to the community and will include engaging activities and a variety of workshops including music exploration and art-making opportunities, community health partners, and more. There will also be delicious food, fun swag, and community vendors filling the streets.
The talented lineup of performers will cover a diverse range of genres including rock, hip-hop, and pop. In addition to providing powerful performances, young creatives are engaged in professional development experiences across the festival supporting live sound, emceeing, capturing content, and ensuring festival logistics run smoothly.
