Brooklyn Academy of Music

One of the top NY States performance venues for the preforming arts. Get your acting on or your music vibes in check, before showing up on this stage. Artisan such as Sarah Bernhardt, Philip Glass, and Arturo Toscanini have preform on there very stage. A nice area to get dinner and go to a show.

The theater was clean, the staff was friendly, the concessions were fairly priced, my only complaint is I was late for my movie because bam has three locations and the ticket did not specify which of the three locations the film was being held. I had to run to each building to figure out which one was playing the movie and missed the first 20 minutes of the film

Dance Africa's Celebrating Ghana on May 27, 2023.

Dance Africa 2023!🔥🔥🔥
You are transported from Brooklyn, New York to an authentic African Marketplace in the heart of the Continent 🎶

Always the best of times. Catch the show if you can but don’t let the fun stop there. The African Dance performances inside the Theatre from all over the continent is nothing short of magical💕 The real after party starts right outside the steps of BAM with the sidewalk drumming circle open to all and the friendly street vendors with their unique wares and vibrant selection of eclectic pieces you won’t find anywhere else in the world. Whether it’s African print yoga mats, to funky hats, to rustic jewelry pieces or one of a kind household items like hand woven African Prints place mats w/matching runners. You name it, the unabashed variety in cultural creativity will take your breath away.

Now don’t forget to go there hungry as your tummy will thank you later. Whether you’re vegan or a carnivore there’s something for everyone. From freshly smoked jerk chicken to hot roasted corn 🌽 on the cob, bring small containers to pack an order to go😂

Wait, it gets even better. Your guaranteed to run into a old college friend, neighbor or someone you haven’t seen in ages. It’s like a family reunion, especially when the weather cooperates. I went there in my jeans and a white tee and left decked out in a beautiful Andikra Print piece that can be worn as a shawl or a shirt. Talk about a two-fer! Clear your calendar for 3 days of bliss cause you can’t see it all on one day.

Buckle up and brace yourself for an unbelievable experience. See ya out there🥰 Harambe!

We traveled to Brooklyn, my hometown, to celebrate MLK day with BAMkids. Eventhough it was crowded at times, we were able to enjoy the music, photo-op and crafting activity.

Dynamic arts space. Became a member this year and went for the 2-night only performance of Trojan Women by the National Theater of Korea. Then went upstairs after the performance for Bamcafe live for some live local music. When you think of the arts that NYC can provide, you can find it all somewhere on BAM's campus. And chase it with a great variety of eats in Ft Greene. Its just a great night out and totally worth the membership.

Went here with friends, and had a great time! We saw inu-oh, which was unexpectedly incredible, definitely go check it out! The theater was nearly empty, which is a little sad, because a movie as good as inu-oh deserves more. It was nice to have it be a bit empty though. The popcorn was terrible actually, which was quite surprising. The movie more than made up for it though!
