Join us on Sat, July 30 for our 2022 BRIC Celebrate Brooklyn! Film Night. We'll be screening the movie Fame with an opening performance by Sing Harlem.

This 1980 cult-classic musical follows a diverse group of teens as they navigate the challenges and triumphs of life at the prestigious New York High School of Performing Arts. At once gritty, heartbreaking, and joyful, Fame remains one of the most authentically New York films ever made. The acclaimed youth gospel group Sing Harlem sets the tone.

Jazz in July artistic director Bill Charlap and his acclaimed trio are one of the leading ensembles in jazz. Joining them as a special guest to kick off this year’s festival is nine-time Grammy nominee Joshua Redman, widely regarded as the greatest jazz saxophonist of his generation, and “one of the 21st century’s finest jazz improvisors” (The Guardian).
