The Action Lab’s Harry Belafonte Fellowship brings one of hip-hop’s most enduring civic voices to the Bandshell. Common’s prolific discography spans the ‘90s to the present day. Between releasing albums and authoring books, he’s been awarded an Oscar, a Grammy, and an Emmy for his creative work, while working tirelessly as a social justice activist. Join us for an event that is as much a cultural moment as a concert. 

This event is part of BRIC Celebrate Brooklyn!, New York City’s longest-running, free, outdoor performing arts festival. View the whole summer 2026 lineup here.
