Join us at Rhythm & Streets: Busking for Change a day-long busking event that unities the richness of music with the power of social change, occurring from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on various spots on our campus. The primary aim of this unique event is to bring to light the issues of economic disparity and injustice, centering particularly on supporting students faced with financial insecurity.

Our campus will become a performance space, hosting a total of six talented performers who will be playing throughout the event. These artists will grace different locations across campus, each adding their distinct vibe to the surroundings, and sparking discussions around the economic inequality that far too many students experience.

Tailored to maximize reach and resonance, our chosen locations imbue a sense of familiarity. Each setting plays host to the busking sessions, transforming into arenas of music and advocacy.
