Black History Month: Celebrating Black Excellence

Welcome to the Social Ark Pop-Up: Celebrating Black Excellence Sponsored by Westfields Stratford City.

Black History Month was a standout event as the #SocialArkFamily💙 hosted a pop-up at Westfield Stratford City, showcasing #BlackExcellence. Over three weeks, young social entrepreneurs highlighted emerging Black designers, musicians, and artists, with podcasts, workshops, and roundtables. Visitors from all backgrounds engaged, purchasing items and sharing memories of Stratford’s pre-regeneration history. Our entrepreneurs, committed to using their lived experiences to empower communities, inspired everyone. Westfield provided excellent support, from prime location to a professional set-up. Huge thanks to JuJuBeng for the graphics and Marlon Rouse-Tavares for the film.

From being sidelined to leading change. This is Black Excellence sponsored by Westfields Stratford City
