2006 Art and Change Grant – $2,500

  • Neighborhood: Wynnefield
  • Change Partner: Jessica Karat Foundation
  • Discipline: Performance
  • Social Change / Intent: Feminism

Crystal will serve as co-project director and master instructor for the Ladies of Hip-Hop, an annual festival in Philadelphia that includes two days of women-led workshops for both novice and experienced dancers of African and modern dance, including, breaking, popping and locking. This festival brings together a community of women in hip-hop from all different backgrounds and dispels the mainstream view of women's role in hip-hop culture by highlighting positive female role models "holding their own" in a male-dominated world. In addition to sharing moves, the workshops also allow people to share their experiences, struggles, and triumphs as women in the hip-hop community.
