Eight U.S. Department of State visiting hip-hop artists from around the world stop in Brooklyn on their U.S. tour to spend the day with Brooklyn Ballet. The international hip-hop artists join Brooklyn Ballet dancers and DJ Yako440 to share, show, and find common ground. Come see these extraordinary artists at a FREE event!

Since 2006, the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs' Cultural Visitors program has offered artistic development and cultural exchange experiences for artists and arts managers.We're lucky enough to get to see them live in a free performance. Perfect for kids interested in dance.
