The brunch’s aim was to support the museum’s campaign to support its operations and endowment. The Southampton African American Museum, a former Black barber shop, opened on Juneteenth, 2021. It is the first African American site to be a historically designated landmark in the Village of Southampton, NY, and the first Black barbershop to be transformed into a museum in the United States.

(Community Empowerment Award), Nikki Paul, SEPA Chapter President, Drifters Inc. (Community Empowerment Award), Marianne Morrison (Visionary Supporter of the Arts Award), Dr. Georgette Grier-Key (Champion of the Arts Award), and Novi Brown (Bold Voice in the Arts Award).
