Farewell and Appreciation Gathering, Join us as we celebrate the closing of our current library and the beginning of an exciting new chapter
About this Event

We would love for you to join me on Friday, November 20th, 6:30 pm at the Society for Africans in the Diaspora + SAID Institute 2126 Westheimer Rd, Houston, Tx 77077 for a special and meaningful gathering as we celebrate an important chapter in the journey of SAID Institute.

The cocktail event is about more than saying farewell to a physical space. It is an opportunity to celebrate the people, friendships, generosity, and shared vision that have given this place its meaning. Your friendship and support have been an important part of our journey, and I would be especially grateful to have you with us.

As SAID Institute transitions from its current home in pursuit of a new permanent location, our commitment to our mission remains as strong as ever. While we prepare for this next chapter, our work will continue through interim satellite offices, allowing us to sustain our programs, nurture our community, and expand our vision for the future.

I see this moment not as an ending, but as an opportunity to reflect on how far we have come and, more importantly, to imagine what we can accomplish together in the years ahead.

Your belief in our mission means a great deal to me, and I look forward to continuing this journey with you.

Our address may change. Our mission does not.

I sincerely hope you can join us tonight. It would mean a lot to share this moment with you.

With warm regards and appreciation,


Debo Folorunsho

SAID Institute
