From Hip Hop to the Cosmos

As a part of its Creative Leaders in Residence program, BART is excited to welcome Dr. Stephon Alexander later this month. Dr. Alexander, a professor of physics at Brown University, is a theoretical physicist and jazz musician specializing in cosmology, particle physics, and quantum gravity. During this residency at BART, he will be exploring the interconnections among music, mathematics, and nature with students.

On Thursday, May 18 at 6:30 PM, Dr. Alexander will also deliver a public performance as part of our “BART Presents!” series. His performance is titled, “From Hip Hop to the Cosmos,” and is free and open to the public. Use this form to reserve your seat today.

BART’s Creative Leaders in Residence program continues to bring to BART exciting figures whose time with our students has lasting effects. “BART Presents!” is an occasional series featuring the Creative Leaders in public performances and exhibitions. In just the last few years, Creative Leaders to BART have given our students opportunity to work with award-winning poets, scientists, activists, and writers.
