You are invited to join us for Bethel’s fourth annual Blacknificent Black History Month Banquet — an evening celebrating Black culture, excellence, and resilience across our school community.

Blacknificent (Black + Magnificent) is rooted in pride, belonging, and connection. The event honors the rich history, achievements, and contributions of Black individuals while uplifting student voices and stories. It is open to all Bethel students, staff, families, and friends, and welcomes participants of every background to learn, reflect, and celebrate together.

What Blacknificent celebrates:
• Black excellence, history, and culture
• Building meaningful community connection and shared pride
• Highlighting student voices, talents, and achievements
• Educating and inspiring across generations

Through shared stories, recognition, and community engagement, Blacknificent creates a space where everyone feels seen, valued, and inspired. This engaging and educational banquet is completely free and open to everyone. We hope you’ll come together with colleagues, friends, and family to celebrate this remarkable legacy of Black history with us!
