Saturday Morning Live! Presents Words, Beats, & Life

Join us for some family-friendly beats from our friends at Words, Beats & Life! Words, Beats & Life (WBL) is a transformative Hip-Hop performance experience, rooted in the music and dance culture of Washington, DC. WBL transforms individual lives and communities through Hip-Hop culture in all its forms.

Performances will take place at 10am on Saturday, February 14th and February 28th in the Helen Hayes Gallery of The National Theatre, located at 1321 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC 20004. Children will be encouraged to sit on rainbow mats on the floor and parents to sit in chairs behind.

Registration is FREE but donations are welcome. In the event of a sellout, please feel free to join the waitlist; we also accept walk-ups, pending the availability of space.

This performance is ideal for children ages 3-6 but all are welcome!

This performance will be ASL-interpreted. The space is wheelchair accessible.

Words, Beats & Life (WBL) is DC’s longest running, dopest Hip-Hop based arts educational non profit. Their organization breaks down barriers that keep our cities' outstanding young creatives from taking full advantage of the opportunities that come along with living in the Nation’s Capital. As unapologetic advocates for the transformative power of hip-hop culture in all its forms, WBL empowers lovers of expression to relentlessly create, refine and define systems of positive change. WBL's arts based educational programs equip youth, creatives, practicing artists, and scholars to move from theory to practice. Harnessing the power of the imagination, Words, Beats & Life reshapes the lives and communities they serve. Go to wblinc.org to learn more!
