About this Event

Welcome back to King Manor! We kick off 2026 with a collaboration to celebrate Black History Month. Stop by to learn more about Black figures in American history and revolutions around the world. This event will have reading circles, access to our learning library, and create art inspired by the work of Alma Thomas.

Admission is free for all ages! Tickets are not required but lets our staff prepare for your arrival!
