Program areas at Universal Hip Hop Museum

The [r]evolution of Hip Hop offers an immersive journey through the history of Hip Hop. Employing archives and experimental storytelling techniques, the experience delves into the five core elements of Hip Hop: mc-ing, dj-ing, breakdancing, aerosol art, and knowledge.
We initiated the uhhm business of music institute: pitch perfect summer music camp, generously supported by warner music group/blavatnik family foundation social justice fund. This five-week program provided youth with insights into various roles in the music industry, business planning, and financial capabilities. Moreover, our programs blend academic skills with leadership development, artistic activities, and critical thinking exercises, exposing participants to new ideas and possibilities.
In 2022, our institution continued its pursuit of establishing a world-class Museum. Our programming aimed to captivate the public with innovative experiences, including fireside chats with Hip Hop icons and musical showcases. Thanks to the support of the simons foundation, we successfully launched the Hip Hop science project (hhs), designed to introduce middle and high school-aged students to the fascinating integration of science, technology, and Hip Hop. The primary objective of the program is rooted in engaging participants through learning and fostering community strength through cultural involement and understanding.
