Joy lives in the spaces Black educators create when they gather in community, fully themselves. Join BlackFemaleProject’s Teacher Truth initiative and the Black Teacher Project for the third annual Black Educators’ Night Out, an evening rooted in celebration, connection, and care for Black educators across the Bay Area.

Grounded in a shared commitment to honoring Black educators’ success, joy, and well-being, this gathering offers space to relax, reflect, and reconnect. The evening will feature music, dancing, food and drinks, wellness activations, and games including bowling, pool, and ping pong, alongside opportunities to build community and access supportive resources.

Black Educators’ Night Out takes place on Wednesday, June 3 from 6:00 to 9:00pm at Plank Oakland. Free tickets are available for the first 100 Black educators, with additional tickets and community supporter options available. Join us for a night that centers your joy, your wellness, and the community that holds it.
