In the Stax Live Music @Central
About
Come experience a special edition of In the Stax in collaboration with the sonic exhibit at our Central library. The Berkeley Public Library's In the Stax is collaborating with artist Derwin Deon Brown II, founder of the Black American Sound System (B.A.S.S.) in bringing Black American music into the library. This partnership will feature a sound exhibit titled The People's Sonic Park which will be on display at the Central Library September-December 2026. This collaboration will also feature public programming across all five of our locations where the community will be able to interact with the exhibit, learn the rich history and current scene of Black American music in the Bay Area as well as live music events and workshops.
