Black History Long Beach, Rooted in Partnership

BlackHistoryLB preserves, celebrates, and channels our cultural heritage into education and opportunity—rooted in partnership and collective action.
For over 20 years, we’ve gathered our community in solidarity. Born from deep partnerships with community organizations, we’ve learned that meaningful work requires genuine relationships, shared vision, and mutual commitment. Our events, programs, and initiatives are built on this foundation: celebration rooted in substance, and community built on trust.

Partnership is how we build lasting change. We’re honored to work alongside community leaders, local organizations, government partners, and corporate supporters who share our commitment to cultural celebration, educational opportunity, and systemic equity. Together—through intentional collaboration and shared purpose—we’re creating the Long Beach we believe in.

We invite you to be part of this work. Whether as a participant, partner, or supporter, your presence and contribution strengthen what we’re building.
