SUMMARY:Seize the City: Immigration and Belonging
DESCRIPTION:Part local guide, part community gathering, and part dinner with a story. \nJoin us for an immersive experience that brings the Queen City to life through its history, culture, food, and community. Whether you’re new to Charlotte or have called it home for years, you’ll discover the people, places, flavors, and stories that make Charlotte unique. Meet others who are just as curious about the Queen City as you are.\nCharlotte has changed from a largely bicultural, Black and white city to an increasingly multicultural one. The Immigration & Nationality Act of 1965 opened Charlotte and other US cities to immigrants worldwide. Learn how immigration has helped make Charlotte more multicultural, infusing the city with diverse cultures, traditions, and stories.  Enjoy lively conversations, network, and share your own Charlotte experiences.\nThe evening features engaging storytelling and conversation led by Levine Museum, highlighting the immigration and migration stories that have shaped Charlotte.\nYour ticket includes a classic local barbecue meal from Sweet Lew’s ( https://www.sweetlewsbbq.com/ ) featuring chopped Pork, Collard Greens, Mac & Cheese, and Cornbread, plus sweet tea and lemonade.\nCome hungry. Meet new people. Discover Charlotte in a whole new way.\n \nRegister\nLocation: \nLevine Museum of the New South – 1800 South Blvd. Charlotte, NC 28203\nParking:\nParking for Levine Museum is available at the garage located at 110 East Blvd ($5 after 5PM). Additional street parking and parking lots are also within a short walk of the museum.\nThe East/West light rail station is just a few steps away!\n
