Come on out, Saturday, Feb. 27th for an Annual Black History Month event hosted by
The Lounge Society - Zakiyia Forbes!!!!I will have a vendor table there selling my first book, Struck By Lightning and also my original, hand made 'Happiness' plaques. If you're in the area, please stop in for the event. Details below...
This year the theme is “Black History is World History” and will take place on Saturday, February 27th. The event will be held downstairs in the Parish Hall of Sacred Heart Church - New Brunswick, NJ (use the Throop Avenue entrance). Door open at 11:00am with a complimentary buffet beginning at 11:30 and the show starting promptly at 12:00. There will be an art exhibition from both local and international artists, in addition to performances from musician, singers and poets. There will also be guest speakers and a brief award ceremony. Vendors will be a new addition this year for those who would like to show support to some of the local entrepreneurs and business. While there is no charge to enter the event or enjoy any of the activities or food (only exception is the vendors of course) TICKETS OR RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED. This will ensure that everyone gets a chance to eat at the buffet and be included in the raffle drawings that are taking place throughout the event. There are free raffles for the adults as well as the children.
By moving the event to a larger venue than it was held in the previous year, it has been able to expand the scope of event. The art exhibition will be larger, and a crafting corner for children has also been added. Students from Mason Gross will be participating in the event as well as talent from as close as around the corner and as far as Nigeria.
