Join us for Rooted in Faith, a powerful Black History celebration honoring our past, uplifting our present, and building a stronger future—together. This is more than an event; it’s a call for our community to gather, reflect, and rise in unity.
Experience an evening filled with live performances, inspiring moments, and meaningful connection as we celebrate the resilience, faith, and legacy of Black history.
Enjoy plates of delicious, soul-filled food available for purchase, prepared with love and rooted in tradition, while supporting a mission that directly impacts our community.
This event is a reminder that when we show up for one another, change happens. Every plate purchased, every performance witnessed, and every person in the room helps fuel the work of restoring hope, dignity, and opportunity in our neighborhood.
✨ Come hungry.
✨ Come ready to be inspired.
✨ Come ready to stand with your community.
Don’t miss this moment. Our history deserves to be honored—and our future depends on us showing up.
