About the event
Join us on Sunday, August 27, as we celebrate the Godfather of House Music Frankie Knuckles' legacy with friends, house music, and fellowship in our urban oasis at Kenwood Gardens on the South Side. Times are subject to change.
Dance into fall with live house music sets by DJs Fathom, Greg Gray, Ctrl Zora, Celeste Alexander, Blesstonio, and Duane Powell, and access community resources that honor Frankie's pioneering curation of liberatory space through movement and music.
Rebuild Foundation is the proud steward of the Frankie Knuckles Collection - an archive comprised of objects, ephemera and the late Godfather of House Music's personal vinyl collection - made possible by our partnership with the Frankie Knuckles Foundation. Through our archival work, we are committed to preserving and amplifying Black music, cultural histories, and Frankie's legacy.
Food and drink from local vendors will be available for purchase. Please note that this event will take place outdoors.
