### We’re All Going to Be SHOUTing Soon!

We are just five weeks out … from SHOUT! The 17-day celebration of art, ideas, food and music returns to the streets of Uptown Charlotte Sept. 17 to Oct. 3. There are literally hundreds of creatives — from thinkers to makers — who will be part of the event, plus lots of free interactive fun and whimsy. (Did you hear about the giant, spinning tops you can ride in, **[Los Trompos](https://www.instagram.com/p/CSZSklRAxh9/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link)**?)

In two weeks, we’ll share a more detailed preview of SHOUT!, but this week, we thought we’d serve up an appetizer of two events we can’t wait to see — one returning and one newbie. And, we’re sharing regular updates on [@CLTisCreative](https://www.instagram.com/cltiscreative/).

### **Returning Event: CLT DJ Battle (Sept. 18)**

This event debuted at SHOUT! in 2019, pitting the best of the Charlotte region’s DJs against one another to see whose spins reigned supreme. (**[P.S. It was DOMii. More about it here.](https://www.charlotteiscreative.com/the-biscuit-podcast-july-24-2019/)**) This year’s SHOUT! plays host to the third such DJ Battle and keeps the format with a lineup of talent voted on by fans. **[Tickets are free here.](https://cltdjbattle.com/event/clt-dj-battle-2021/)**

Organizer **Dae Lee (**also of **Hue House)**, says, “It’s dope that CLT DJ Battle will be a featured event at Charlotte SHOUT! this year as the city is eager to get back out and enjoy the excitement of top tier, party-rocking DJs going head-to-head in competition.”

### **Newbie: Box Camera by Aguinaldo Junior**

This one must be experienced to really understand. **Aguinaldo Junior** is a Brazilian architect and photographer trained at CPCC. He’s assembled a team to create a giant box camera based on a daguerreotype, the world’s first commercial camera created in Paris in 1839. Visitors will enter the camera to experience projected photos and videos showing the history of cameras … and historical photos of Charlotte. Junior is building the camera right now. **[More about him here.](https://www.instagram.com/ajsjunior/)**

Excited to be part of SHOUT! for the first time, Junior says, “To see my greatest passions — art, architecture and photography — materialize in one project, rounded by great artists in the Queen’s City … it’s a dream fulfilled.”

Stay hungry for the SHOUT! Special in *The Biscuit* later this month.
