Join us at Lynch Family Skatepark in Cambridge, MA on Thursday, September 24 from 5–7pm for Tagalong: Skate, Paint, Imaginate—a free, all-ages, drop-in celebration of street art, music, and movement.

Congratulate <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thirteenvicarchive/">@thirteenvicarchive</a> &amp; <a href="https://www.instagram.com/anandatoulon/">@anandatoulon</a> on their residency success and BYO spray paint and wheels to make art &amp; memories at the skatepark! On the lineup: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/soundzofnow/">@soundzofnow</a> is a healing-centered music project rooted in the power of rhythm, ritual, and community. Blending ancestral practices with contemporary sound, the project weaves together organic and electronic elements, creating immersive soundscapes grounded in the musical traditions of the African diaspora and Caribbean cultures. The audience will not simply be observers, but active participants in the music. The sounds, movements, and energy of the space will become sources of inspiration and characteristics within each piece. Come hear, see, and feel how the art of skating connects with sound, rhythm, movement, and collective expression. The <a href="https://www.instagram.com/FloorLordsBoston/">@FloorLordsBoston</a> were established in 1981. Since then they've played a significant role in the growth of hip hop culture, contributing wholeheartedly to define and expand the art of breaking in the community, and using hip hop dance to reach young people through positive impact of the culture. They’ve performed with <a href="https://www.instagram.com/RUNDMC/">@RUNDMC</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/Madonna/">@Madonna</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/JLo/">@JLo</a> &amp; more, and Aug 6 was proclaimed "Floor Lords Day" in the <a href="https://www.instagram.com/CityofBoston/">@CityofBoston</a>. Through performance, competition, and teaching, the Floor Lords and the Flava Squad family carry the work locally and worldwide. Brookline-based tattoo artist Mik will be ready to apply crafted temp tats to event attendees! Explore their flash portfolio at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/chainmailgoblin/">@chainmailgoblin</a> &amp; find their work <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thebrightonemporium/">@thebrightonemporium</a>. Event photographer <a href="https://www.instagram.com/matt.r.ringler/">@matt.r.ringler</a> will be capturing all angles of the action, no matter the speed.
