Started in 2005, ArtsUnion is an initiative to enhance the cultural economic development of Union Square. ArtsUnion presents events and markets, cultural and historical tours, commissions street furniture and public art, and revised zoning to incentivize arts redevelopment. ArtsUnion was once funded by the MCC's John and Abigail Adams Art Program and remains supported by the City of Somerville.
Join us for the 9th Annual Evolution of Hip Hop Festival on Saturday, August 19th, from 4:30 to 8pm (rain date August 20th) at Union Square Plaza in Somerville.
This Arts Union event will feature rappers, singers, spoken word poets, dancers, and visual artists from the Somerville community and surrounding cities. This showcase of hip hop music, dance and culture displays the immense creativity throughout the region. There will also be live art, interactive activities, craft vendors and local community groups.
Featured artists will be featured soon.
Show up and support your local hip hop artists! This ArtsUnion event is produced in partnership with Wat's Da Wurd & Mass Movements. Other sponsors: Pacey Foster UMassHiphop Archive, QuickTimeRadio, Somerville Media Center, QuickTimeRadio (QTR).
