Welcome + Recap of the Spike Lee Block Party

Hello LEVELUP in NYC Family!

This weekend, we attended the Spike Lee Block Party in Bed-Stuy Brooklyn, one of our favorite summer events! Spike Lee commemorated the 35th Anniversary of his groundbreaking film "Do The Right Thing," bringing out stars from his movies and featuring surprise performances. Despite the rain, the event captured the essence of classic Brooklyn on a historic street where parts of the movie were filmed.
