Mission

We want to provide a brief respite from these unprecedented times for those who choose to attend.

We want to celebrate life, music as a sanctuary, and, of course, Prince and his albums! During the 2015 Grammy Awards, Prince declared, “Like books and Black lives, albums still matter!

We want to hold a space for communion & fellowship through Prince. He always encouraged us to have Love 4 One Another, through his words, actions, and music.
