The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

Join Portland's NBA team, the Portland Trail Blazers, at their annual Celebration of Black History on Friday, February 10. This event honors the city's Black and African American community and celebrates their contributions across the country.

The night will feature special performances, retail items and multiple fundraising efforts benefiting  Imagine Black, a nonprofit whose mission is to build political participation and leadership within the Black community.

Black History Month is a time to honor the legacy of African Americans throughout U.S. History and within our communities. This month-long observance is a time to celebrate, reflect and understand Black history beyond the commonly told stories. The theme for this year is “Pass the Mic,” as the Blazers spotlight the many educators, entrepreneurs, activists, and leaders in our thriving community. Join in this year for the Black History Month celebration.
