(Explore the Series - Details & Tickets)
San Juan Hill's sounds and stories come alive this fall. In the first half of the twentieth century, the area around where Lincoln Center stands today was known to many as San Juan Hill. A lively cultural center, San Juan Hill nurtured luminaries in ragtime, stride, jazz, bebop, mambo and other Afro-Caribbean forms, visual arts, musical theater, and more.
Enjoy performances, films, and events that honor the ongoing artistic legacy of this historic neighborhood and the people who lived there.
