Sip & See: Our Block Fundraiser and Screening

We’re celebrating Our Block, the series uplifting Black food, culture, and community across the US, with an in-person fundraiser in the heart of D.C.

Join us at Hill Prince to sip, snack, and support indie storytelling that centers us. We’ve filmed two powerful episodes, and this next round of crowdfunding helps us finish the season, finalizing editing, marketing, and production for the two additional episodes already underway.

Expect good vibes, tasty pours (including Black-owned spirits), a special preview screening of the show, and raffles with incredible prizes!
