We are so excited to bring legacy back for the 2nd year!
Our 2021 inaugural kickoff was a huge success, and 2022 promises to be even better!
During the third week in July, we celebrate the legacy of Maggie L Walker and the anniversary of the St. Luke Legacy Center’s inception in the historic St. Luke Building located in the Jackson Ward neighborhood of Richmond, VA. In addition to promoting our initiatives to support the mental, emotional, social, physical and financial well being of the community, we also take this week to celebrate the birthday of Maggie L. Walker.
Join us, as we partner with some amazing local entrepreneurs who embody Walker's legacy to bring a week full of festivities!
Thank You To Our Sponsors!
