Fourth Annual Frankie Knuckles Festival

In partnership with the Frankie Knuckles Foundation, Choose Chicago, The Smart Museum of Art, and Goodman Theatre, Rebuild is proud to present our Fourth Annual Frankie Knuckles Festival and Fundraiser, this year hosted at The Land School, our newest spatial concept, pedagogical platform, and experimental land art project in Grand Crossing.

Join us for a daylong celebration of the Godfather of House Music as we activate the Frankie Knuckles Collection and revel in the liberatory power of House. As a continuation of our ongoing house programs, this year’s festival will move us rhythmically through joy, fellowship, and collective remembrance as we engage and embody Knuckles’s material legacy as a living archive. Rebuild is honored to uplift his enduring impact with a vibrant lineup of Chicago’s finest emergent talent and established legends, spinning in and around the House tradition and lineage.
