Great Music and Food


The Black Cultural Centre celebrated with Jazz Music with a BBQ and Live Concert on July 15th as part of the TD Halifax Jazz Festival - Jazz Connects Series. The featured performers were local artists Keonte Beals, Jody Upshaw , Kristen Olivia,  and Maje.

All performances took place on the grounds of the Centre on the TD Halifax Jazz Fest Portable Stage. It was an amazing atmosphere, beautiful weather and great food.

In addition to the live music and family BBQ, Halifax Councillor Lorelei Nicoll was on hand to make a special presentation to the Black Cultural Centre. A special funding grant as part of the Halifax Community Grants program was presented to the Centre to support upgrades to the basement community space that will take place this fall.
