Join us for a pre-show panel discussion as part of BIPOC Affinity Night for The Brothers Size, featuring Black Men’s Wellness. This conversation will explore themes of brotherhood, healing, and mental well-being in Black communities, connecting the play’s powerful narrative to real-life experiences.

This event is FREE and OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.

All people who self identify as BIPOC, and their guests, are specifically invited to attend. Though no one will be turned away, it is encouraged that folks outside of the BIPOC community join us on another night!

Thank you to our partners! Enjoy complimentary beverages provided by our generous Affinity Night partners, Multnomah Whiskey Library and Deschutes Brewery.

About Black Mens Wellness
About Black Mens Wellness

Black Men’s Wellness is a community-based initiative that addresses health concerns commonly affecting Black and African-American men, including high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity, anxiety, and more.

Through culturally specific, trauma-informed workshops, we engage African-American men of all ages to identify and discuss health concerns they are currently experiencing and/or are susceptible to. We offer curriculum and activities focused on healthy eating and physical fitness to raise awareness, equip participants, and promote strategies for prevention.

Black Men’s Wellness was founded by community activist and educator Darrell Wade, who has over 20 years’ of experience providing direct services and advocacy centered around racial equity, public health, and wellness for underserved populations and communities of color.
