Introducing In Compilation Of...a curated, intimate experience where music and memory connect in reflection by BGLV (Black Girls Love Vinyl).

This one-of-a-kind gathering invites vinyl collectors, cultural storytellers, and lovers of intentional care in community to arrive with open hearts and curious spirits, leaning into the celebration of cultural preservation, creative authenticity, and the emotional power of sound.

At the heart of the experience is a very special guest, a three-time Emmy-nominated Black actress and storyteller. A supporter of both BGLV and the WalkGood community, and an avid vinyl collector herself. She’ll join us for a live, intimate storytelling session, sharing personal reflections and memories through records from her own collection.

Expect vinyl DJ sets curated by BGLV’s own, a welcoming space to share your personal music stories, an intentional record swap, special giveaways, and a space where your musical identity will be honored and deeply fulfilled.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

An intimate afternoon curated for vinyl collectors, cultural storytellers, and lovers of intentional community to connect, hosted by a three-time Emmy-nominated Black actress and storyteller.

Expect vinyl DJ sets, shared personal music storytelling through selected vinyl picks from your collection, a curated themed record swap to discover and leave with something new, special giveaways, and light refreshments in an affirming, wellness-centered space.

WHAT TO BRING: A SWAP RECORD

“What was I thinking when I bought this?”
Or just maybe… it was meant for someone else all along.

This is your invitation to part with a record not as a castoff, but as a gift. A way to pass on sound with love, memory, and intention. Choose a record from your collection that you're ready to release and trust that it will find a new home in someone else's hands and heart.

You’ll leave with something too. A record from someone else’s collection, shared in the same spirit.

(Note: please no broken, scratched, or warped records. Give as you’d like to receive. A record valued no more than $20.)

WHAT TO BRING: STORYTELLING RECORDS

Bring records from your collection that reflect the following themes:

A record that feels like you — whether it’s the cover that embodies your aura, or the one that makes you feel fully grown.
A record passed down through family, or one released the year you were born.
A record you borrowed and never gave back or the one you had to buy again because someone “borrowed” it forever.

(Optional: a notebook if you’d like to jot down reflections and track names)

WHERE: THE WALKGOOD YARD, a creative wellness studio from non-profit wellness organization WalkGood LA
