The Bushwick Collective Block Party, scheduled for Saturday, June 1, from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm at 7 Scott Ave, Brooklyn, NY, is an iconic annual event that has evolved from a simple mural painting jam into a large-scale cultural and community festival. Founded by Joe Ficalora in 2012, the event aims to renew the neighborhood through art on the street, transforming the area into an open-air gallery with murals created by artists from around the world. This transformation has made Bushwick a popular destination for locals and tourists.
This year’s festival promises an exciting lineup of live music performances, headlined by renowned hip-hop artists such as Raekwon, Fat Man Scoop, Statik Selektah & Friends, NEMS, Termanology, Tony Moxberg, Lil Dee, Chandler, Home & Abroad, XAVR, and many other special guests. Hosted by MC DStroy and featuring DJ Evil Dee in the mix, the event is set to rock the block.
Beyond music, the Block Party offers various activities and attractions. Spanning several blocks, the festival features curated NYC food vendors, artist and merchant vendors, street art merchandise, original artwork, and prints. Visitors can enjoy giveaways, product sampling, and the opportunity to meet some of their favorite street artists and graffiti writers from around the world. As Joe always ensures, the event emphasizes community engagement and celebration, drawing thousands of visitors each year who come to experience the ever-evolving cultural scene of Bushwick. With its inclusive nature, the Bushwick Collective Block Party is a much-anticipated celebration that highlights the neighborhood’s transformation and rich cultural heritage.
