PERSPECTIVE
#UjimaWednesdays
FEATURED EVENTS: JUNE 2022
As we move into a different stage of the ongoing pandemic, some events organizers are choosing to create hybrid or in-person events. We encourage our members and the public to exercise caution and best judgment that takes into account their personal status as well as community care.
COMMUNITY EVENTS
Our events page is updated once a month, along with the #EventEdition of the Ujima Newsletter on the first Tuesday of the month. As we learn about new events during the month we will do our best to update the list.
