Event Details

Following their extraordinary presentation of Drumfolk in 2023, Step Afrika! returns with their signature work The Migration: Reflections on Jacob Lawrence which charts the story of African Americans moving from the rural South to the industrial North to escape Jim Crow, racial oppression, and lynchings in the early 1900s. Inspired by Jacob Lawrence’s iconic 60-panel “The Migration Series” (1940-41), this iconic work from the award-winning dance company uses the images, color palette, and motifs in the painting series to tell this story through pulsating rhythms and visually stunning movement.

Founded in 1994 by C. Brian Williams, Step Afrika! is the world’s leading authority on the art form of stepping. Under Mr. Williams’ leadership, stepping has evolved into one of America’s cultural exports, touring more than 60 countries across the globe and ranking as one of the top 10 African American Dance Companies in the US.
