BLACK MUSIC MONTH FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN

Hip-Hop Music is Black Music. June is Black Music Month. We celebrate the artists, innovators, and sonic architects from Virginia whose music influenced generations.  Our mission is to honor their legacies by preserving their history and telling their stories.  Help us amplify the past, present, and future of Hip-Hop music by making a donation during our Black Music Month Campaign.  100% of proceeds support programming, events, and curation of a future Virginia Hip-Hop themed exhibit.

This is a movement that cements Virginia’s place in hip-hop history. Together, we’ll create experiences that honor the past, engage the present, and inspire the future.
