[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

The Black Arts Centre in Surrey is organizing a few events for Black History Month: https://www.instagram.com/p/DF35I7Ky4Gu/?img_index=1

They lean more on the creative side, but would be great to include.

The artist-run centre is located at Surrey Central Station.
