Now in its 6th year, #HellaBlack is an interdisciplinary performance event curated by and for Black artists, to amplify the depth of Black artistry, and shine a bright light on the talent of Boston’s Black artists and their communities. This event is meant to create a safe space for the Black community to celebrate intersections of Blackness through dance, art, spoken word, and music, to dispel the myth of Blackness as a monolith. This annual signature event is part of a commitment to move towards race equity at BCA.
#HellaBlack Vol. 6: Sacred — curated by Amanda Shea — asks the performing artists to embody and present what makes them feel grounded in their creation. The artists will showcase how this sense of safety, security, and secrecy influences their artistic expression.
The performances will begin at 7pm, with a 15 minute intermission. The run time is approximately 2 hours. Doors open at 6:30pm along with a vendor market. Everyone is welcome to stay in the Cyclorama after the show ends at 9pm to enjoy the market, a beverage, share the experience, dance, and meet the artists! We are honored to have award-winning Comfort Kitchen as the exclusive food vendor for #HellaBlack Vol 6! They will be serving some of their signature dishes throughout the night. We are thrilled to have EventKore as a Sponsor for #HellaBlack Vol 6! They will be offering a cash bar service and two photo booths to enjoy; a digital and 360 photo booth.
