Exciting News – We’re 1 Month Away from MAMA Put!
https://forms.gle/kpqdLREUrxKxNwng8
Mark your calendars! On September 21, we’re bringing back our beloved MAMA Put African Pop-Up Eatery at 1709 Blanshard Street. And this time, we're spicing things up even more by adding some classic board games like Ludo and Awalé! And that’s not all – we’ll also be hosting a thrilling LUDO Game Tournament with a registration fee of just $5. The winner will walk away with $100! Gather your friends and family for a day of great food, friendly competition, and vibrant culture. https://www.issambacentre.ca/event-details/ludo-tournament
Heads Up for February 2025 – Black History Month!
Get ready for an unforgettable February! We will be launching Black History Month in Vancouver with the first-ever Black In BC Leadership Summit. As part of our commitment to the extended Canadian Decade for People of African Descent, this summit is a unique opportunity to bring together Black leaders, professionals, and community members from across BC.
