After 5 Fridays | Dance After Work: Virginia Union University Divine Nine Step Performance

After 5 Fridays is the perfect way to kick off the weekend. Relax with a beverage, visit the galleries for an art escape, and take part in the evening’s featured attraction.  

Our Black History Month celebration continues at this unique event that's part step show, part dance party, and part pep rally! The Virginia Union University Divine Nine sorority and fraternity members grace the Cochrane Atrium with a stunning step performance that showcases skill and history.

And we're calling on you to show your school spirit and bring your sisters and brothers to rep your Divine Nine sorority or fraternity with pride. Let's see which colors, emblems, or Greek letters we see most!

This program is presented in connection with the exhibition Giants: Art from the Dean Collection of Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys, on view through March 1. 

This event is part of our After 5 Fridays program series.

Join us every Wednesday for in-person performances by some of the area’s best jazz musicians. 

Jazz in the Spirit is back with its blend of high-energy jazz, gospel, and music from the African diaspora. Bandleader, composer, and multi-instrumentalist Richard D’Abreu Jr. is proud to introduce singer/songwriter Ronee Martin to the Jazz Café audience.
