Welcome to the Black Cultural Center! Heading link
The Black Cultural Center is a place to gather, learn, share and explore the diverse histories, cultures, and arts of people of African descent in the United States and around the world. We dedicate ourselves to building community for Black students and making our space a home away from home. We welcome everyone in the UIC community who is eager to expand their knowledge about race, culture, and social justice in the United States and throughout the African Diaspora.

The BCC curates and sponsors exhibitions, performances, film screenings, open-mic poetry, lecture-demonstrations, dance, storytelling, and visual and performing arts workshops. We support student and postdoctoral research, and lend our expertise to a number of collaborative programs and initiatives with our campus and community partners. Our work is guided by four pillars: building community, exploring the diaspora, celebrating our cultures, and envisioning justice.
