Woodard’s Flying Juke is a traveling celebration of Black Rural Culture. This supper series was developed as a part of the Woodard’s Garage Restoration Project, a preservation project that will turn a historic, Black owned mechanic shop into a special third space for artists to workshop and supper club.

This supper series uplifts the narrative that Juke Joints were important for Black rural economies and cultivated a space for marginalized people to feel free, even if for 1-night. The food culture and music born from these spaces is an important part of our heritage and as we explore these ingredients with the guidance of Gabrielle and her team, together we will reclaim this narrative and remember how we’ve found joy, home, and safe space in the past, present and future. 

We’re landing in Durham NC at Nana’s Rockwood on Sunday, April 27th. If you’re also flying in make sure to subscribe to Gabrielle’s newsletter for Hotel suggestions and other happenings about town that weekend. Take off work on Monday, if you can!

Dress Code: Sunday’s Best, get fly, good denim welcome.
