Wire KC Weekender

The 38th National Convention of the National Black United Front will be here in Kansas City July 6-9th. We invite you, our Kansas City Family to join us for the community town hall, workshops and to hear our esteemed speakers. We will also have a weekend of enlightenment, nation building, entertainment, shopping while supporting Black-owned businesses, and a national call for healing our city and cities across the country. A weekend of Unity. There will be something for everyone in the family.

On the First Friday of every month, thousands of residents and visitors fill the sidewalks of the Crossroads, enjoying what has become the city’s liveliest and most popular recurring event. Arts organizations, galleries, studios, and a wide variety of local businesses feature local, regional and national artists as well as live entertainment from 5 to 9 p.m.
