Westfield Wheaton Mall (11160 Veirs Mill Rd, Wheaton, MD 20902), in partnership with The Music in Me Foundation International, has announced its inaugural PeerPositivePOWER CommUNITY Dance Party that will be free and open to the public. Set to coincide with International Anti-Bullying Month and take place in front of the Macy’s Lower Court from 2pm to 3pm on Friday, July 21, the event will shed light on anti-bullying and non-violence. Esteemed Broadway performer and Artistic Director of the Foundation, Danny Soto, will lead the dance party.
A celebration of unity and inclusivity, the event is aligned with Westfield Wheaton Mall’s ongoing mission to foster community connections in safe, vibrant public spaces. It will feature performances by over a hundred people from a myriad of local community groups, including teenage campers, senior citizens, a go-go band from the Washington Metropolitan Police Department, and visiting Senegalese youth as part of an exchange program. Retailers will offer special giveaways on-site and there will be a DJ and live on-air coverage by WKYS.
Westfield Wheaton is proud to offer a platform to broadcast this uplifting message and further establish its role as a pivotal multicultural community hub, where individuals of all ages and backgrounds are welcome to gather, celebrate, and engage not only for entertainment but also for greater empowerment. Their dedication to the community’s well being aligns perfectly with the ethos of The Music in Me Foundation International, bolstering the mutual goal of creating immediate and lasting positive impacts through the power of music, storytelling, and the performing arts.
