We’ve got an exciting announcement that we know our fam is going to LOVE. We’re teaming up with Right Track to bring you the most immersive live streams with the hopes of raising donations for Brown Art Ink & BTFA (Black Trans Femmes in the Arts). Live streams have been an incredible tool for Family Reunion to stay in the game, but they always left us feeling incomplete and wanting more… How do we stay unique? How do we party with a PURPOSE? These are elements that our streams were lacking but we craved. We’re confident that this upcoming project with Right Track will be proactive and influential turning point.


SDSU Senior and creator of Right Track, Felipe Souza, approached our team to collaborate on this stimulating project. There are 5 components to the Right Track Movement: DJs, Cycling, Fashion, Art, and Philanthropy. Cyclers will be riding between Santa Barbara and LA in an attempt to raise funds for the two BLM non-profits. On top of that, we will be hosting an immersive live stream in 3 unique locations along this route incorporating DJs, fashion runways, and art displays. This will all be taking place over the course of 1 week at the end of October! The goal is to feature artists of colors to fight racial discrimination within the arts.


If you are a creative looking to get involved with Right Track please contact us through Instagram: @familyreunionco or via Email: info@familyreunioncollective.com.

The battle for equality starts at home - Together, we can make a difference
