Learn To Love Yourself: Silent Disco & Portrait Series
FREE & Public Programming
August 23 & 30 | Uptown Grand Central Plaza | 3pm - 6pm
A community-oriented event that brings art to Harlem. Named by Timeout New York as one of the city’s Best Things to Do, this family-friendly event will include a silent disco and portrait series, inspired by founder Dr. Barbara Ann Teer’s lifelong commitment to her radical belief that love for “our Black selves” can be a concerted mechanism for liberation and eradicating oppression. The 4th annual Learn to Love Yourself series will see the return of Harlem mainstay DJ Stormin Norman handling entertainment, while photographers Salimah Ali (8/23) and Elliot Jerome Browne Jr. (8/30) will capture portraits of attendees.
“Fall in Love with yourself and have a love affair with yourself. You’re the only one who can make yourself happy. You’re the only one who can fulfill your life-long joy, Cause nothing can happen to you unless it passes through you.” – Dr. Barbara Ann Teer
