Celebrating the rich legacy and enduring contributions of African American cowboys and frontiersmen, the Black Cowboy Festival is an annual rendezvous of education, recreation, and cultural appreciation. The festival has become a cornerstone event in promoting the historical and contemporary significance of African American contributions to cowboy and frontier culture.
The Black Cultural Enlightenment (BCE) Society, a non-profit organization, cultivates community awareness of African American contributions through various cultural and educational initiatives. Established in 1997, the society continues to be a linchpin in fostering a richer understanding and appreciation of African American heritage and societal contributions.
