Lunch and Learn with Duane Kumala-Thomas
Wed., Sept 10 11:00 am - 1:00

Resilience in Black History is a powerful spoken word performance held on World Suicide Prevention Day. Blending poetry, visuals, and storytelling, it honours those who chose to endure; from Black communities to global struggles. A moving tribute to survival, and a reminder: Prevention is active defiance; and defiance, an act of living.
Featuring Duane Kumala-Thomas aka DKT This event is sponsored by Highlander Studios.
This event will be followed by a free soup and sandwich lunch. Attendance is free, but donations to help cover our costs are encouraged (recommended donation: $10)
 Please register in advance by telling us you're "Going" on this event page on Facebook or contacting the Museum by email or phone. Reservations help us to know how much food we need and how many seats to put out, so please make sure that you are able to come and let us know!
