As Black History Month draws to a close there are still a few events left to attend if you’d like to learn a little bit more about the history and culture of African Americans.
The Port Huron Museum will be hosting the event “A Taste of Soul” presented by Black Lives Matter Port Huron Branch, and the Port Huron NAACP. The event is sponsored by the Community Foundation of St. Clair County.
The event will be a live-tasting exhibit that touches on the origins of traditional “soul food” as well as other signature cuisines and beverages from the Caribbean Islands, and Africa provided by local and neighboring restaurants.
A Taste of Soul will also highlight African American dance and music as it relates to history and culture as a race. There will be spoken word by local activists, along with live music from the Metro Soul Band which will perform from 12 noon – 1 p.m.
The event is free, but you must RSVP by claiming a ticket at: eventbrite.com.
