The Black ED Movement will be hosting their very first Black ED Ball to commemorate Black History Month
It is a masquerade ball with a 1920’s theme but with a twist because it will be a “Night at the speakeasy” 🎩
Everyone will be expected to use a code at the entrance, and the location will remain unknown until the last week. The night will include a range of entertainment from DJ’s to henna tattooing and will be offering discounted club tickets after the ball. You can expect to eat an authentically African Caribbean three course dinner, as unusual as this may be to some it's important for us to embrace our cultures more fully and this is a good way to do so.
The event will be on the 22 October 2021 from 6pm-12pm
