The Santa Clarita Valley Chamber of Commerce announced Tuesday its Fourth Annual Black Business Month Celebration, a cherished tradition honoring the resilience, innovation, and impact of Black entrepreneurs across the Santa Clarita Valley. This year’s celebration will be held on Thursday, Aug. 6 at 5:30 p.m., at the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts).
Attendees can look forward to an evening filled with meaningful connection, inspiring stories, and dynamic conversation with some of the most influential Black business leaders and entrepreneurs.
“A year into serving as Chair of the Black Business Council, I am deeply grateful to bring our community together once again for this special celebration,” said Tamara Pickering, chair of the Black Business Council. “Every year, this event reminds us of what’s possible when we champion one another, when we share our stories, forge new relationships, and commit to building an environment where Black-owned businesses don’t just survive, but flourish. I hope you’ll join us for an evening that uplifts, connects, and inspires.”
During August, Black Business Month is a nationally recognized moment to reflect on the strength and significance of Black entrepreneurship. The SCV Chamber remains committed to amplifying these voices and affirming the essential role Black-owned businesses play in shaping a thriving, inclusive regional economy. This year’s program will include the recognition of outstanding businesses and individuals whose vision and leadership have left a lasting mark on our business community. Honorees will be announced in the coming weeks.
“The contributions of Black-owned businesses make to our local economy, entrepreneurial landscape, and broader community are significant,” said Ivan Volschenk, president/CEO of the SCV Chamber. “This celebration is our opportunity as a community to stand together in recognition of that impact, and we look forward to honoring this year’s distinguished recipients. We encourage everyone in our community to join us for an evening rooted in unity, appreciation, and recognition of the contributions these businesses make to our local economy.”
