  • Friday, Feb. 13, 2026
  • 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
  • Cedar Valley

Join us as we honor 100 years of Black history observances. Together, we will explore how reclaiming Black narratives preserves identity, confronts truth and inspires transformation.

Highlights will include:

  • The powerful panel discussion “Wisdom From Grandma’s Porch”
  • A high-energy, live African drum and dance performance
  • A soul food–themed lunch
  • A reflective violinist performance

Visit our vendor fair featuring Dallas College departments, community partners and Black-owned businesses.

Come ready to listen, reflect, and take your seat in the story. This is not just history; it’s our living legacy.

Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend.

Location: Cedar Valley Campus, Room N1051

Please register online to participate in the summit.
