About the Experience
DURAG isn’t just an event — it’s a platform. Designed to uplift, educate, and celebrate, DURAG centers Black-owned businesses, creatives, and community leaders through curated experiences that are both fun and meaningful.
Throughout the night, guests will move freely between live performances, interactive workshops, shopping experiences, and creative stations. Whether you’re getting a fresh cut, learning from a speaker, dancing with friends, or creating something with your hands, every part of DURAG is intentional.
Come for the culture. Stay for the connection. Leave inspired.
