Joyful Noise: A Night of Restoration, Witness, and Love
Joyful Noise was a community gathering rooted in music, truth, and lived experience. Hosted by Allies for Humanity in collaboration with Beyond Me Ent, this night centered dignity, relationship, and the voices of our unhoused neighbors. What you’ll find here is not a performance, but a record of witness.
What Joyful Noise Was
Joyful Noise brought together neighbors, artists, and allies to pause, listen, and remember our shared humanity. Through music and storytelling, we created space for restoration not through fixing, but through presence.

These impact stories reflect the heart of Joyful Noise. Each story is shared with consent and care, honoring lived experience without judgment or extraction.
Creative Collaboration: Beyond Me Ent
Joyful Noise was co-created with Beyond Me Ent, a collective of artists committed to using music, storytelling, and creative expression as tools for empowerment and humanitarian impact.
Through this collaboration, TK was invited to step fully into their role as a DJ and co-creator, weaving sound, story, and presence to help illuminate the lived experiences of our neighbors. Together, we used music not as background, but as a bridge — amplifying voices, grounding the space, and holding what needed to be witnessed.
Beyond Me Ent created a parallel home for Joyful Noise, extending the reach of the event through creative storytelling and aligned pathways for support. Their work reflects the same values that guide Allies for Humanity: dignity, reciprocity, and belief in the power of people to show up for one another.
