This holiday season, Electric Root hosts a celebration of community and love headlined by Michael Mwenso and his band the Shakes for a rocking, soul-satisfying selection of multi-denominational holiday classics. Led by Mwenso and accompanied by a stellar lineup of New York's most accomplished jazz musicians and vocalists, you're invited to help us bring this harmonious dream of an Afrofuturistic Winter Wonderland into reality. Electric Root is the full expression of a multi-decade relationship between Mwenso and arts programmer Jono Gasparro. Originally introduced as collaborators at Jazz at Lincoln Center, the creative duo has gone on to become a formidable cultural force as curators, performer and emcee for celebrations, performances and ambitious festivals across the country.

Join us in our lobby 30-minutes before the performance for a hands-on creative Family Workshop inspired by An Afrofuturistic Winter Wonderland. Led by Lincoln Center Teaching Artists—the art-making workshop is open to participants of all ages and ability levels.
