The Words Beats & Life Hip-Hop Festival (Day 6)

The final day of the festival, Sunday November 6th, was luckily also the least work intensive and involved transporting teachers and paint to the mural site and registering b-boys in the tournament. It also was the first time I was able to see my coworker Marcus perform alongside the Hip-Hop Orchestra he founded at the University of Maryland.

The Words Beats & Life Hip-Hop Festival (Day 5)

While there were less events I was focused on Saturday, November 5th , this was perhaps the most loading, unloading, and setting up I did all week. Just for this area alone we had giant chess art pieces, pictures of famous Hip-Hop artists, chess boards, timers, pieces, and of course checking in. This was also the day the parking attendant recognized me the third time I pulled in because I was picking up and transporting a great deal (mainly for DJ Premier’s rider). 

Regrettably I have not yet learned to play chess but a majority of our students do as chess is Hip-Hop (if you’d like to know how you’re just going to have to take a class with us).
