Audiences will be invited to consider: What does sport sound like? How do music and sport collide in real time? What does Nashville sound like through sport? With the help of a DJ\, audience members will create a distinctive soundtrack to commemorate the event and put new songs and sports in conversation. \nJoin us before the event\, beginning at 5 pm\, for special after-hours at the Museum\, featuring FREE admission\, guided tours and light bites and drinks for purchase. \nAbout Soul’d Creative Collective: Founded by Creative Director Christian Sinclair and Vanderbilt alum and former NFL player Jonathan Wynn\, Soul’d Creative Collective is a Nashville-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit that brings people together over the love of BIPOC arts and culture by focusing on education\, collaboration\, and access. \nJock Jams is part of Playing Beyond the Field\, a free\, three-part series exploring the historic relationship between music and sport\, with a particular focus on Nashville’s robust African American musical and sporting legacies. Curated by the co-directors of The Sound of Victory\, Courtney M. Cox and Perry B. Johnson\, Playing Beyond the Field is organized in collaboration with the Vanderbilt Sports & Society Initiative and the National Museum of African American Music. \n  \nRSVP Here
