On Saturday May 9, The Living Word Project partnered with Riverside Theatre, MAPP International, Mighty4 and Samurai Graphix to present LIFE is LIVING, a public outdoor installation to catalyze deeper thought and community action around the value of life and our relationship to our planet. LIFE is LIVING is an attempt to use Hip-Hop culture to de-corporatize the GREEN movement, emphasizing LIFE in neglected neighborhoods as a pathway to arts integration and green living.

The event in Harlem featured: The Estria Invitational Living Word Graffiti Battle, The Mighty 4 B Boy Battle hosted by Paulskeee and the JamesTOP Blackbook Battles with live performances by Kurtis Blow’s Hip Hop Choir, Brave New Voices Green Team, Riverside Inspirational Choir, Grace Kelly Jazz Quartet, and D Cross, hosted by Marc Bamuthi Joseph.
