Ohio Black Expo

Ohio Black Expo is a statewide humanitarian organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for Ohio’s African American citizens, by establishing and encouraging an independent self-help approach to problem solving.

Our initiatives address several areas that are key to the success and well-being of African Americans in Ohio.

We raise funds for year-round programs and scholarships through our annual Expo Week events during Memorial Day Weekend. The goal for our 4 days of events is to encourage the 1.7 million Black residents in Ohio + the 4 million Black residents in surrounding states to join us for empowerment through our workshops, unity and collaboration through our networking events, and celebration at the Riverfront Culture Fest.
