A SEEK Raleigh public art project by Daniel Chavis of The Veldt
Noir Bizarre's IHaveADreamPop! Electric Underground Railroad event is happening on September 8th and 9th at VAE Raleigh. This two-day event will feature live music, vendors, and DJ sets inside VAE's main gallery. Free and open to the public. The event starts at 12:30 PM.


Le Bizarre Noir (NOIR BIZARRE) “STRANGE BLACK” is a play on words and reclaiming the idea that exploring works by people of color is often unbeknownst to a mainstream audience who had no idea
we existed. Chavis wants to include everyone who is “strange and black” regardless of their background or sexual orientation, “offering something between Hillbillies and Hip Hop.”


Noir Bizarre is a mobile multimedia event covering the "grey" areas of Bohemia and Afrofuturist creatives. We invite the local Triangle community to experience the bohemian side of this Black Futurist manifesto in art, music, and other endeavors.
