As the national theme for Black History Month celebrations in 2025 is "African Americans and Labor," we will also be proudly highlighting several black-owned businesses and business owners that afternoon. We invite any black-owned business in Cornelius to participate in this event by completing a simple form. Participants will be recognized at the event, and there will be an opportunity to display materials about your business to share with other event attendees.
