Our beloved resident siren brings her unique monthly blend of music and visual art to Newark Culture Club!

Our acclaimed resident vocalist, Sophia's Daughter, is leaving us for FRANCE! Join us to wish her Bon Voyage as she closes her 2-year fundraising campaign for the trip of a lifetime. Weaving live music, theatre, and poetry, Sophia's Daughter brings Haitian Heritage and sophisticated talent to the Newark Culture Club Saturday, May 23rd at 8 p.m.* Proceeds from ticket sales support Sophia's Daughter's 3-week Artist Residency in France. * Don't miss it! Featuring: El Deed$ is a New Jersey–based recording artist and performer known for blending introspective lyricism with aspirational storytelling. His music reflects growth, ambition, and real-life perspective. Operating under the creative umbrella of SixthHouse.LABS, El Deed$ delivers a sound that bridges lifestyle rap, motivational themes, and modern hip-hop culture.
