Join us to kick off National Wellness Month with a relaxing day by the shore. Bring your blankets, your beach chair, your favorite hobbies and enjoy some screen-free time by the lake
One lucky attendee will win a beach gift bag full of goodies to bring to their next personal beach day. Must register for the event for your entry.
❋ FREE Black Woman Book Swap (All day)
Bring a book, take a book! We’re giving away books by Black women authors and encourage you to bring one of your favorites (or one you’re willing to part with) to share the genius of Black women.
❋ Anklet Making (10 am-1 pm)
Led by Beads by Niza, this anklet-making session is a drop-in and create opportunity! Cost is $10 for three anklets.
❋ Slow Flow Yoga Session (10-11 am)
Our event prioritizes comfort, so this easy flow yoga session with Tiana Dané is a great way to warm up the body while listening to the waves crash along the shore.
❋ Wellness Circles (1-2 pm)
Led by Kayla Merritt of Black Girls Empowered, these circles will allow you to meet someone new and meet yourself on a deeper level.
❋ Wellness Walk (2-3 pm)
This roughly 40-minute walk with Bronlynn Thurman of Black Women Explore will circle the Edgewater area and allow you to get your blood pumping while meeting someone new.
