ABOUT
On Friday and select Saturday evenings from 5 pm to sunset, July 15 through August 27, Summer Sway will take over The Shed’s public Plaza—created when The Shed’s movable shell is nested—to host free DJ sets, dance sessions, battles, cyphers, and workshops. Cedric’s, The Shed’s bar, will provide food and drinks for purchase. The Plaza stays open throughout the week to visitors.
Summer Sway will feature Tidal Shift, a large-scale, site-specific sculptural installation and platform for sitting, lounging, performing, and gathering designed by WIP Collaborative. The installation’s surface is covered with Nike Grind, a recycled material composed of manufacturing scraps and end-of-life footwear.
Summer Sway is inspired by the rich history and vibrant presence of Black social dance in our city and beyond. Summer Sway features workshops and dance parties led by renowned choreographers and companies who continue to reinterpret styles of house, hip hop, bomba, Bruk Up, the Philly Bop, the hustle, and more along with some of NYC’s leading DJs. Summer Sway is presented in partnership with Nike.
The Shed’s free summer programming also features Open Call, new performances by emerging NYC artists, July 8 through August 27, and Tiona Nekkia McClodden: The Trace of an Implied Presence, a multidisciplinary exhibition exploring contemporary Black dance, opening August 3.
