Docks Open Art Commissions: Rain Jam
Rain Jam is a vibrant dance event celebrating Hiphop culture featuring dance battles, performances, and music with a focus on bringing people together.
A dance battle is a competitive dance event where dancers or crews compete against each other, showcasing their skills and creativity in a dynamic display. These battles are a core element of hip hop culture, emphasising self expression, resilience, and community.
Whether you want to dance, or just watch, Rain Jam is for everyone!
The dance battle will commence on the stage outside Good Hotel on Saturday 27 September, from 11am-3pm. Come make some noise!
If you want to take part in Rain Jam, check out @raincrew on Instagram - winners receive a £300 cash prize!
Rain Jam is a Docks Open Art Commission curated by Hive Curates.
