Proceeds from the Black Creativity Gala benefit the Black Creativity Program. The night will start with cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, performance by the Englewood children’s choir, and viewing works from the 2018 Juried Art Exhibit. The juried art exhibit is the nation’s longest running exhibit of African American Art (Started in 1970). The exhibit features approximately 100 pieces of art work from African American’s across the nation.
The night will continue with awards, elegant and creative dinner stations, and of course musical entertainment. Check out my experience from last year here.
