Events range from an art exhibition to an informative business panel discussion to weekly pop up shops – all centered on Black-owned businesses.

 

“I felt that running my own black-owned, women-owned businesses, it’s my duty to not only create a space for others who look like me, but to give them a platform to showcase their brands and services,” Crawford-Williams said. “This is just the beginning, a stepping stone to a larger event that will support black-owned businesses and help push them forward.”

WHEN             February 2023

EVENTS           All Things Black Business Month features the following events:

  • Black Business Chatwill be held 6-8 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 16, 2023 and features a panel of business experts discussing both the challenges and keys to growing your own successful business.
  • Dee Hughes Photography will offer a photo session from 1-6 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 18, to small business owners seeking new headshots. The cost is $40 and includes one photo editing session. Registration is required. Visit AllThingsTicketing.comto register.
  • Behind the Red Curtainwill be held from 6-9 p.m. Friday, Feb. 24, 2023. It is an art exhibition inspired by love and meant for adult audiences. Curated by Colibri the Artist, the exhibit is open to 21+ and will feature works by Detroit-based Photographer Jermaine Dalejuan and Boston-based Artist and Painter William Kennedy. PIPED (Power in Poetry Experience of Detroit) will be performing live. This is a free event.
