Join the Haitian Network Group of Detroit (HNGD) and the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History on Sunday, May 17, 2026, from 1 PM to 4 PM, for a joyful and meaningful commemoration of Haitian Flag Day. A celebration of Haiti's legendary sheroes, this program invites everyone to honor the resilience, cultural pride, and enduring unity that the Haitian flag represents.
This is a space to learn, to celebrate, and to be moved. It is a space to affirm that Haiti's story is not only a story of struggle, it's a story of extraordinary triumph. And it is a story that belongs to all of us who believe that unity is, and has always been, our greatest strength.
This program will include live drum and folkloric dance, a screening of Age of Revolutions: The Haitian Revolution, spoken word, a musical tribute, a history presentation, and a reception featuring a taste of Haitian culture.
This is a free event. Seating is limited.
