Culture Caucus Summer Festival: Tahrook

Alt Fusion celebrates artists of the DMV who exist in their own experimental genre-bending category. Extracting elements from downtempo, alt-rock, soul, alternative R&B & hip hop- these emerging artists continue to create a profound impact in the community and for spaces that continue to serve non-ordinary expression.

Kennedy Center Culture Caucus member Tahrook presents Alt-Fusion Festival. A day filled with set performances, a pop-up market of the culture's favorite streetwear, a yoga class, and a community discussion.
