The Joy Soulstice Dance Party

JOY, the outdoor music, dance, and culture event series moves indoors to the beautiful Roundhead Brewing Co. in Hyde Park with resident Djs Jenene Cook and Jesse Cardoso. JOY is a community celebration of dance music, and Roundhead Brewery brings people together through beer: Cerveza Que Reúne; so our event in their Community room will be a great gathering centered around dancing, gathering of good people, as well as great drinks and music. Roundhead Brewery serves a variety of brews made onsite, empanadas by our collaborator Chiqui's Kitchen as well as pizza. There is also plenty of parking at the Westinghouse industrial building complex in Hyde Park.
