Hip Hop Congress will host its 8th Annual Midwest Summit
sponsored by the Office of Multi-Ethnic Student Affairs. The
Summit partners with Detroit’s 5E Gallery and a number of youth education and college access programs like the Center for
Educational Outreach, the Office of Academic Multicultural
Initiative’s Gear Up Program, Ann Arbor’s Neutral Zone youth center, and Ann Arbor Public Schools’ Rising Scholars Program. The summit brings together a diverse group of individuals and
encourages participants to educate themselves on social issues,
organize action, and recognize how hip hop can be used to create positive change.


Scheduled guests include Big K.R.I.T., Narcicyst, Maimouna Youssef,
OneBeLo, Tree City, The Foundation All-Stars, and more. Tickets cost $15 and are available at the Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO). Doors open at 8pm.
