#SaveTheBlackLady

Since December 2019, the doors of The Black Lady Theatre in Brooklyn, NY have been closed due to the unlawful lockout of the owners. Because of the generosity of donors like you, we have been able to continue to educate, entertain and inspire our youth, entrepreneurs and artists despite these challenges. Thank you for your continued support. 

How Your Support Helps

Every donation we receive goes toward:

◆ Preserving, protecting, and returning the recognized Cultural Art Institution to Chief Clarence Hardy Jr. and Minister Omar Hardy.

◆ Providing art, education and entertainment to the youth, disenfranchised and the elderly. 

◆ Raising awareness about the importance of theatre, art and culture in black and brown communities.

We need your help. 

A small $10 donation will bring arts, education and culture back to the community.
