Floor 1, Lobby

In celebration of the opening weekend of Sixties Surreal, take a trip through Sun Ra-inspired sounds of the sixties with an immersive collaborative performance by Dave Guy and April Hunt. Stop by the Whitney’s Lobby for live, improvised performances on the hour, with musical interludes throughout the evening. 

Known for his work with The Roots and Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, trumpeter Dave Guy will play live, intertwined with an Afrofuturist DJ set by Mixtape creator April Hunt.
