"My first time at Excellence, I experienced it with my mom, who traveled in from NYC. We made sure to gather as much information as possible about the event beforehand. I really wanted to see the fashion show and poetry performances. My expectations were exceeded—the food, the artists, and the networking connections were all incredible. I’m excited for the events to come."

"It is such a proud and satisfying experience to sponsor this magnificent, unparalleled event. My team and I connected with over 4,000 attendees from some of the most impacted communities. No one else within our geographical boundaries can match this level of engagement and impact. Hats off to FACE 614 and First Fridays for their incredible work. Keep building, leading, and connecting the dots—we are the change we seek."

"Attending the 2024 Black Tie Gala was an experience I’ll never forget. Walking into the grand venue, I was struck by the elegance and grace of everyone present. It was a celebration of excellence, beauty, and community. The evening was filled with stunning fashion, heartfelt conversations, and a shared vision of progress. This wasn’t just a night of glamour; it was a celebration of history, heritage, and the promise of what’s to come. To anyone who hasn’t experienced this—let me tell you, it’s not just an event; it’s a reminder of who we are and what we can achieve together."
