Cincy Horseplay

Our mission is to unite a community of music enthusiasts through the cultivation of free expression.

I co-founded the Cincy Horseplay brand with my good friend, Grant Benninger in January of 2022. We are a community of shufflers and house music enthusiasts in the Cincinnati area. We’ve created a space for authentic expression, connection, and creativity through hosting weekly shuffle meetups and larger-scale pop-up events. Cincy Horseplay has involved over 30 members.

 

​

Meet Ups

Meet-ups are the communal place to become inspired and to improve upon your shuffling skills. Every Week local shufflers get together to teach what they know and learn new moves from their fellow Cincy Horseplay members.

Pop Ups

Giddy Up Pop Up events are social gatherings that celebrate connection through music and dance. These take place at different parks across Cincinnati and feature local DJs.

Cincy Horseplay DJ Cart

The goal of the Cincy Horseplay DJ cart was to create a mobile sound system for our group. It was created for the Cincy Horseplay Blink Activation and funded by Cincinnati's Blink Festival. It's now used for all of our pop up events. Created in collaboration with Grant Benninger and Quintin Armstrong.

Blink Activation

We activated the Insane 51 mural for the 2022 Cincinnati Blink Festival. Blink is an art, light, and projection mapping festival. Greek Artist Insane 51 painted the mural of Euthenia, the Greek Goddess of prosperity, GoDutch illuminated the Euthenia with projection mapping, and we activated Euthenia with live music and dancing.

Shuffle Song of the Week

The Shuffle Song of the Week encourages members to get up and dance. During the winter months it's harder to find the space to come together, so a song is selected each week for all members to dance to and post their moves.
