Discussion | #PurpleReigns: A Tribute to Prince
This spring marked loss of a major artistic and cultural icon - Prince. Even President Barack Obama publicly mourned him and the United States Senate passed a resolution praising his achievements. Prince has had such a strong impact – from the boundary-pushing music he wrote and played, the musicians he supported, to the image and fashion he projected. He garnered fans worldwide across age, race, gender, sexual orientation and music genres. In honor of what would have been Prince's 58th year and inspired by the Black Lives Matter's hashtag acknowledging Prince's passing, faculty Julia Ott, Simon Critchley, Deva Woodly and Claire Potter reflect on the unique place The Purple One will forever hold in the cultural zeitgeist, followed by a dance party celebration of his amazing music and visual style.

Concert | ¡VAYA! 63: Aurora & Zon del Barrio
From the African Diaspora to the streets of New York, Zon del Barrio—led by composer, writer, and historian Aurora Flores—spins a high-octane musical extravaganza celebrating Latino traditions and culture. If you like salsa, Zon del Barrio does it dura style. If you like boricua roots music, they do it cortijo style, and if you like it like that, Zon del Barrio does it like that with English-language boogaloos. DJ Bongohead kicks of the night at 7:00 pm and plays between and after the band’s two sets.
