Step Afrika! makes its debut at The Joyce Theater (@thejoycetheater) this summer with 'The Migration: Reflections on Jacob Lawrence', a powerful exploration of movement, memory, and the pursuit of freedom.

Don't miss this masterpiece in motion during its limited New York City engagement:
📆 June 10–21, 2026
🎟️ Tickets on sale now at Joyce.org

Co-Presented by Step Afrika! (@stepafrika) and IMG Artists (@imgartists)

Step Afrika! blends percussive dance styles practiced by historically African American fraternities and sororities; traditional African dances; and an array of contemporary dance and art forms into a cohesive, compelling artistic experience. Performances are much more than dance shows; they integrate songs, storytelling, humor, and audience participation.

U-N-I-T-Y 📢

After rehearsing at their schools across @mcps_md and @hocoschools, nearly 120 students in our Step Up to College program came together for Unity Day.

Led by @stepafrika, the day's workshops explored how rhythm, movement, and stepping can bring people together across communities.💖
