Maumee Valley Country Day School’s Afro-Am Club announces the return of its annual event, the Afro-Am dinner. Scheduled for Thursday, May 1, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., in the school’s dining hall, this celebration delivers an evening of cultural enrichment and community engagement.
Aligned with the spirit of Black History Month, the Afro-Am dinner serves as a platform to honor and celebrate the rich heritage and contributions of the African American community. This year, the event’s theme mirrors that of the national theme: “African Americans and Labor.” The 2025 theme highlights the transformative impact of Black workers–free and unfree, skilled and unskilled–on U.S. history, culture and social progress.
Tickets are $10 per person and all proceeds benefit the Afro-Am Club. Additional donations will be accepted at the door. Register at bit.ly/49ds3n5 or visit mvcds.org/afroam for more details.
The dinner is open to the public.
