Visual art, underground dance culture and fashion are masterfully fused in Harlem School of the Arts Teaching Artist Julia Kito Kirtley’s live performance art exhibition, “I Hear Music In The Streets.” The exhibition, which features 13 paintings and mixed media pieces encompassing cityscapes that embody sound and movement, will debut at an opening reception on Saturday, June 18 from 6:00 to 9:00pm and continue on through August 27, 2016, at The Harlem School of the Arts, located at 645 Saint Nicholas Avenue, New York, New York 10030.

Kito will be performing a live painting during the reception that will also feature eight internationally acclaimed dancers including break dance pioneer Ana “Rokafella” Garcia and international House dance champion Terry “Cebo” Carr. Dancers will be wearing Kito’s fashion designs to bring the paintings to life with choreographed and freestyle movements to the live sounds of DJ Doc Jay.

The family-friendly exhibit is free and open to the public. There will also be an HSA Artist Talk with Kito on Thursday July 21 2016, from 6:30 to 8:00pm. For more information visit www.hsanyc.org.
