Celebrate Black History Month 2025

Black History Month is a time to honor the rich history, resilience, and achievements of Black Americans—past and present. Here in Sacramento, we recognize that Black history isn’t just something to celebrate in February; it’s woven into the fabric of our city and should be uplifted all year long. From the contributions of early Black pioneers in California to the vibrant cultural scene that continues to thrive today, there’s so much to explore and appreciate.
This month Sacramento is hosting a variety of events that highlight Black excellence in art, music, history, and community leadership. Whether you’re looking to engage in thought-provoking discussions, support Black-owned businesses, or enjoy live performances, there are many ways to take part.
