Monday afternoon at the Dunbar Community Center, Lexington’s Parks and Recreation Department kicks off a series of events for Black History Month. Paul Hooper is Parks and Rec’s information office supervisor. He said the African beaded jewelry making lesson – like the seven other gatherings this month – is free and open to everyone.
“So it's going to be an opportunity for people of all ages, families, you know, friends, kids to come in, learn a little bit about the history of that and then make their own jewelry and have something to walk away with.”
