In Washington, D.C., the birthplace of Go-Go, and across Hampton and Norfolk&#8217;s HBCU ecosystems, culture is not static; it is lived, shared, and continuously redefined.<\/p>\n<p>Culture In Motion builds on that legacy, connecting history to new energy and local creativity to broader opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>At the center of the Roadshow is Jones&#8217; vision for culture as infrastructure, a living system that brings access, visibility, and opportunity directly into communities. Culture In Motion brings that vision to life through Apollo-inspired programming and community-centered engagement, creating pathways for connection, creative expression, and long-term impact.<\/p>\n<p>In the Mid-Atlantic, that approach is realized through partnerships with local institutions, on-the-ground activations, and youth-centered engagement. Each of these is designed to meet the needs of the communities they serve while strengthening the region&#8217;s broader cultural ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>Across the region, Culture In Motion will engage Historically Black Colleges and Universities, community spaces, and youth-centered environments\u2014including Hampton University, Norfolk State University, Howard University, and KIPP DC schools\u2014bringing together artists, students, and local leaders through live performance, storytelling, and Apollo-inspired creative formats that invite participation, discovery, and expression.<\/p>\n<p>These engagements are part of a broader, connected effort to build relationships, expand access, and strengthen cultural infrastructure across communities.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Culture doesn&#8217;t happen alone. It&#8217;s shaped and shared together. In the Mid-Atlantic, that spirit is already deeply rooted. Culture In Motion is here to boost that energy, amplifying voices, expanding access, and building connections that turn creativity into momentum,&#8221; <b>said Kwanza Jones, Founder and Executive Producer of Culture In Motion, and Founder of SUPERCHARGED.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>A signature element of Culture In Motion is the SUPERCHARGED<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> Boost Bus\u2122, a custom mobile cultural hub designed and operated by SUPERCHARGED, serving as both a vehicle and a delivery system for the broader infrastructure Jones is building.<\/p>\n<p>As it moves through the Mid-Atlantic, the Boost Bus creates opportunities for participation, visibility, and connection, transforming public spaces into sites of live cultural exchange.<\/p>\n<p>The Apollo&#8217;s collaboration reflects its ongoing commitment to expanding its nearly 100-year legacy beyond Harlem and into communities nationwide, connecting with cultural lineages that have long shaped its history.<\/p>\n<p>As Culture In Motion continues its national journey, the Mid-Atlantic stop reflects how Jones&#8217; broader strategy is activating across regions, expanding access, strengthening communities, and building cultural infrastructure designed for long-term impact.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, visit <u><a href=\"https:\/\/edge.prnewswire.com\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4673256-1&amp;h=348151044&amp;u=http%3A%2F%2Fboostbus.com%2F&amp;a=boostbus.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">boostbus.com<\/a><\/u>. #CultureInMotion<\/p>\n<p><b>About SUPERCHARGED<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> by Kwanza Jones<br \/><\/b>SUPERCHARGED by Kwanza Jones is the future-forward creative studio and empowerment platform founded and led by multidisciplinary artist, investor, and philanthropist Kwanza Jones.
