In celebration of Black History Month, the Downtown Long Beach Alliance’s upcoming Virtual Taste of Downtown event will feature all Black-owned businesses based in Downtown, as well as performances by local Black artists. DLBA encourages the community to tune in on February 26, 6-9 PM, on Facebook @DowntownLongBeach for the streamed event showcasing the offerings and talents of these businesses and performers.
During the event, businesses from different corners of Downtown will offer up a memorable evening of entertainment, including demonstrations of barbering services, self-defense techniques, New Orleans cooking, and insightful and fun performances ranging from spoken word poetry to fashion shows and hip-hop music.
