3rd Annual RHSA Student Taste of Soul, Long Beach Celebration

Join the LBUSD Sankofa Parent Village in partnership with the Renaissance High School for the Arts Sankofa Parent Group for an evening of food, art, music, and community at the RHSA Student Taste of Soul Long Beach Celebration! This annual Black History Month celebration uplifts the brilliance of Black arts students at Renaissance High.

This is more than a celebration. It’s a space where Black students are centered, affirmed, and celebrated as leaders, artists, and visionaries.
