Black Cuisine street festival celebrates the cultural roots of African American heritage. Great soul food, kids activities & cooking contestAbout this Event
This is our 45th anniversary hosting the annual Black Cuisine street festival! Black Cuisine celebrates the cultural roots of African American seniors and shares them with the community, especially young people. It started as a soul food cooking contest among the seniors and has blossomed into a cultural street fair featuring food, entertainment, and a marketplace. It is the longest-running cultural event in Bayview Hunters Point and has become a place for young and old to meet and connect with African American Cultural heritage.
From its humble beginnings at the senior center at 1706 Yosemite, Black Cuisine has become a community-wide celebration, embracing organizations and individuals contributing to its cultural flavor. This year’s event will be held on April 26, 2025, from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. At 1753 Carroll Avenue.
Young people and entertainers from the community participate in performances, growing Black businesses have brought their wares to the market, and non-profits from throughout the City come to share information and services.
The agency’s nutrition program uses this event to prepare and highlight cultural foods and engage the seniors in bringing their soul food to the cooking contest. This year’s event will include a raffle with the proceeds sales going towards the agency’s goal of raising money to purchase a passenger van to transport seniors so that they can participate in cultural and social events throughout the City and Bay Area.
