Art, Beats + Lyrics, a traveling art and music showcase presented by Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Honey whiskey, is coming to Detroit. The event will pop up in Eastern Market from 7 p.m. to midnight on April 8.
Attendees can expect live music from rapper Bun B, who was part of the southern hip-hop duo UGK; more than 80 artworks by 30 creatives, including pieces by ArrrtAddict, Charly Palmer, and WAK; and plenty of Tennessee Honey cocktails.
“…You can expect new, innovative installations with artists leveraging their creative talents to showcase not only the intersection between hip-hop music and visual art, but also using their craft to highlight activism, promote social justice, and to capture history,” says Art, Beats + Lyrics founder and curator Dwayne “Dubelyoo” Wright in a press release.
