Jabulani was envisioned by two 2019 Black graduating seniors who endeavored to create a culminating "rite of passage" experience grounded in an African aesthetic that equally represented the creative excellence of Berklee College of Music and Boston Conservatory at Berklee. The 2025 Jabulani celebration will be held on Friday, May 9, at 10:00 a.m.
