Celebrate Black History Month With Cultureville

Celebrate Black History Month With Cultureville

At Cultureville, we believe in helping organisations celebrate diversity and inclusion in meaningful ways. For Black History Month, we offer a range of tailored experiences for organisations, including events, fashion shows, pop-up shops, and bespoke gift bags. These activities not only educate and inspire your team but also demonstrate your commitment to celebrating Black culture.

1. Host a Fashion Show 

Bring the vibrant world of African fashion to your workplace by inviting us to host a bespoke Cultureville fashion show for your employees. We’ll showcase our stunning collections, featuring ethically sourced and handmade African clothing with our Afrobeats DJ on deck to provide tunes that will have you vibing through the show.

  • Fashion as Storytelling: Learn about the history behind our traditional fabrics and prints, and how they represent the heritage of Black communities.
  • Interactive Experience: Your employees or students can engage with the fashion show, gaining insights into the artistry and craftsmanship behind each piece.

This fashion show provides a fun and informative way to highlight cultural diversity while supporting ethical fashion.

2. Pop-Up Shops at Your Organisation

Looking for a more personalised shopping experience? We can bring our Cultureville pop-up shop to your office or school, allowing your team to explore and purchase our collections of African-inspired fashion and accessories.

  • Curated Shopping Experience: Your organisation will have the opportunity to browse a selection of Cultureville’s latest pieces, including clothing and accessories that celebrate African heritage.
  • Ethical Fashion: Every purchase supports sustainable and ethical fashion, as well as Black-owned businesses.

A pop-up shop offers a unique and engaging way to connect with African culture during Black History Month. In addition, businesses have the option to pre-purchase items for employees in advance of the pop-up. This allows your team to receive a selection of thoughtfully chosen Cultureville pieces, such as head wraps, scarves, or jewellery, as part of a corporate gifting initiative. 

3. Black History Month Gift Bags 

Looking for a thoughtful way to celebrate Black History Month with your employees? Cultureville offers bespoke Black History Month gift bags, filled with meaningful items that honour Black culture and heritage.

These gift bags can include:

  • Fashion accessories such as head wraps, scarves, or jewellery, handmade by African artisans.

These curated gift bags are a fantastic way to show appreciation to your team while supporting Black-owned brands and ethical trade.

Whether it's through events, pop-ups, gift bags, or inspirational talks, we’re here to help you create a Black History Month that your employees will remember.

4. Attend Cultureville’s Black History Month Events as a Group

Encourage team bonding and cultural appreciation by attending Cultureville’s Black History Month events as a group. Whether it’s our Black Creative Trailblazers Showcase or the Black Joy Painting Workshop, these events offer your team a unique opportunity to celebrate Black culture together in a fun and inspiring setting.

  • Shared Learning Experience: Your team can collectively experience the richness of African and Caribbean culture, gaining a deeper understanding of the contributions of Black creators.
  • Team Building: Participating in creative workshops or showcases together helps to build camaraderie and promote an inclusive work culture.
  • Cultural Engagement: Employees will leave the events with a greater appreciation for diversity, as well as personal experiences they can bring back to the workplace.

5. Invite Cultureville Co-Founders to Speak

As part of your Black History Month celebrations, you can invite Cultureville’s co-founders, Adeola and Ronke Jane, to speak at your organisation. They will share their inspiring journey of building a business rooted in empowering Black creators and preserving African culture through ethical fashion.

  • Personal Stories: Learn how their personal experiences as Nigerian-British entrepreneurs led them to launch Cultureville and their mission to celebrate Black identity through fashion.
  • Business Insights: Discover the challenges and triumphs of running a sustainable business that uplifts African artisans and promotes fair trade.
  • Cultural Connection: Gain a deeper understanding of African fashion and how it ties into the wider narrative of Black history, identity, and empowerment.

Their engaging talk will inspire your organisation and provide a meaningful way to connect with the themes of Black History Month while learning about the power of entrepreneurship, creativity, and culture.
