rollout jam
RollOut Jam is our inaugural celebration—an inclusive roller-skating party at Rockefeller Center, bringing people of all abilities to the same iconic floor.
The night featured performances by Heidi Latsky Dance, Namel “Tap” Waters, Sunny Cheeba, and other dynamic artists, with From the Throne serving as MC. Artists, DJs, dancers, songwriters, podcasters, and members of the disability community came together—shattering barriers and celebrating difference in motion.
More than a party, RollOut Jam is a platform for advocacy, connection, and culture—where joy, access, and community lead the way.
