Harlem Week 2021 is Reimagined

The 47th Harlem Week 2021 and Harlem Music Festival is a hybrid live and virtual festival of all things Harlem from August 6-15, 2021.

Outsiders may think Harlem Week is a Black thing, but the organizers see it as a multicultural thing. Harlem Week also stands in solidarity with our Asian community. How cool is that? Life is even best when we celebrate each other.
