The activation event titled "Urban Peace" within the Mayfair Community in Eastside Side San Jose will create a safe place of creative expression for the youth by providing a sense of self-acceptance through a celebration of their personal interests.
By creating a positive culture in the youth, they will embody a more connected and peaceful outlook with the people in the neighborhood thus minimizing violence and vandalism while creating a sense of a united community.
"Urban Peace" will tap into the inner Hip-Hop enthusiast of the Mayfair Community. Guests of all ages will experience art, music, dance, and extreme sports. One impactful 8’x 8’ wooden structure will serve as a platform for four live painters while TWC works on beautifying Mayfair’s walls by creating 4 new murals for the neighborhood.
The early hours of the event will begin with a skate competition produced by The City Peace Project finishing off the event with an all styles dance battle produced by Leon Thallion . DJ Efli will provide the crowd with energy throughout the event.
Come be a part of this event made possible by the Abierto Grant and the San Jose Office of Cultural Affairs through the Creative Ambassador program.
Free and open to the public.
