The 5th Annual 517 Juneteenth Weekend kicks off with Pathways to Wholeness, a powerful seminar and mixer that invites our community into dialogue, reflection, and healing under this year’s theme: Empowering Black Wellness.

This free-to-attend event will explore key intersections of wellness in the Black community, with a focus on:

• Mental & Physical Wellness

• Financial & Occupational Wellness

Our panel features thought leaders and experts from across Michigan, including:

• Dr. Ruth Nicole Brown, Chair & Foundation Professor at Michigan State University
• Dr. LeConte Dill, Associate Professor of African American and African Studies, MSU
• Dwayne Powell Jr., Managing Partner at Kalamazoo Forward Ventures
• Dr. LaKeeya Tucker, OB/GYN at University of Michigan Health–Sparrow

Following the panel, stay for an engaging mixer featuring drinks, light refreshments, and DJ sets curated by DJ Kaels.
