A mall press release describes the event:

Rock the Block is not a conventional event but a high-energy experience incorporating music and multimedia that encourages everyone to be involved. There are rappers that entertain and lasers and lights swirl overhead while drama, dance, and videos spread messages of love, hope and character.

Rock the Block supports and believes in abstinence before marriage and saying no to drugs and alcohol. They challenge men and women to become people of character and encourage them to be someone great.

The event features several area vendors and bands. More details are available on the organizer's website.
