Cultural Heritage Programs

The Cultural Heritage Programs celebrate the rich cultural contributions of African American and Mediterranean communities, particularly those affected by sickle cell disease. Through a series of events and workshops, we highlight the artistic heritage and resilience of these communities while raising awareness of the challenges they face. This program is designed to uplift and educate through the exploration of cultural arts, providing a deeper understanding of how sickle cell disease intersects with history, culture, and community identity. By showcasing these unique artistic expressions, we honor the legacy of individuals impacted by sickle cell while promoting unity and pride within these communities.
