Black Family Week (BFW)
Black Family Week is a time to celebrate the richness of Black culture and to bring awareness to the history and presence of the African Diaspora at the UC Davis campus. This weeklong celebration consists of educational programs, an annual Delta Sigma Theta luncheon honoring the work of campus staff and faculty, and overall fellowship geared toward reviving the Black UC Davis community. The week culminates with Black Family Day, a dynamic event featuring live entertainment, a childrenÍs fair, a wine and jazz social, food, arts and crafts vendors, and more, providing an opportunity for a community of students, alumni, family and friends to come together and celebrate the diversity of the African Diaspora.
