Black Wellness Summit

What does it mean to care for ourselves when so much of the world has asked us to simply survive?

Join us for the Black Wellness Summit, a joyful and restorative community gathering centered on the wellness, healing, creativity, and self-determination of Black women.

Presented by The Fountain Theatre and Black Women for Wellness, in conjunction with the Los Angeles premiere of Confederates, this gathering brings together Black women practitioners, artists, facilitators, and community members for an afternoon of connection, restoration, and collective imagination.

Info: Onstage, in performance. Offstage, in practice.

For Nedra, wellness isn't simply something to craft through character; it's something to cultivate in community. Join her for a guided yoga experience at the Black Wellness Summit, then see her onstage that evening as Sara.

Yoga is limited to 12 participants and available on a first-come, first-served basis. Six mats will be available for use; bringing your own is encouraged. Additional participants can enjoy the zine-making experience.

Info: Explore storytelling and self-expression through the art of zine-making. Create your own mini-publication using words, images, and imagination to share your voice and tell your story.

Oumou is a multi-hyphenate polycreative: therapist(ish), zinester, writer, speaker, consultant, strategic partner, and facilitator of spaces for radical learning.
