In the wake of the sudden loss of Chuck Brown, a touching day of tribute was held celebrating his life and music during "Citified: Arts and Creativity East of the Anacostia River," the Anacostia Community Museum program featured at the 2012 Smithsonian Folklife Festival. The final segment of a three- part museum project examining community and creativity, "Citified" showcased the various forms of artistic expression shown in the community including traditional and non-traditional art forms such as tattoo art, hand dancing, mural painting, found object sculpture and, of course, Go-Go music. This video documents the event paying homage to the "Godfather of Go-Go" with interviews of key artist protégés and promoters of the distinctly southeast DC music form.
