Then at 9pm, make sure you stick around for the JUBALEE! After Jam, an improvisational session led by our Rhythm World 34 faculty, invited professional tap dancers and the Eric Hochberg Trio. You will witness the true preservers here at this session, the groundbreakers and torch bearers of this dance. Returning to Rhythm World, young lioness Naomi Funaki, leader of the new school Karissa Royster, master teacher Sarah Savelli, immortal genius Cartier Williams, legendary tap dancer Derick K. Grant and other special guests. Gala ticket holders do NOT have to purchase After Jam tickets."
This year's event will support "K-12 in- and after-school programs" and the Mayfair Arts Center(MAC). The MAC's recent "re-opening" heralded the revitalization of a South Side institution as a new center for arts education, performance and community development. To support this expansion of our services in Calumet Heights and surrounding neighborhoods, CHRP launched RAISE THE ROOF - a $1.7 mil comprehensive campaign to support the Phase I acquisition, repair and operation of the MAC. In addition to the gala, naming opportunities are available for the Mayfair Arts Center.
