This month at QVT we were thrilled to host a vibrant Black History Month celebration filled with reflection, joy, and a deep appreciation for the contributions of black individuals throughout history. The event offered a unique opportunity for our community to come together, learn, and celebrate the richness of black culture and history.
The day began with a warm welcome, setting the mood with a selection of coffees and teas.
Clients and staff joined in on a lively karaoke session, celebrating the music of iconic black artists. The joyful singing filled the room and set an energetic tone for the rest of the day.
Following karaoke, Rochelle delivered an inspiring speech, highlighting the profound contributions of black individuals across history and encouraging us all to reflect on the month’s themes. Her words resonated with everyone, sparking conversations that carried throughout the day.
Our activities included a fun and engaging quiz game on black historical figures and modern influencers, encouraging friendly competition and teamwork. Everyone enjoyed testing their knowledge and learning more about remarkable individuals.
During our midday break, we enjoyed a delicious assortment of finger food, sandwiches, smoothies, and cakes, allowing everyone to relax, chat, and reflect on the morning’s activities.
In the afternoon, we wrapped up with a game of “Who Am I?” where participants guessed famous black figures based on clues. It was a fun way to learn more about black historical and cultural figures, honouring their lasting impact.
Our Black History Month celebration was a beautiful, educational, and inspiring event. Thank you to everyone who joined us in honouring this important month and to our amazing staff and clients for their contributions to making the day so memorable.
