After getting a ton of messages about last week's Google event, I thought I would very quickly pull this event calendar together so you can see some of the creative events happening across the city, this Black History Month. And there are a lot! With just a week and a bit left here is the updated one!
Updated daily as people send me more. :) In no particular order so check those dates!
