The Future:

Bronzeville’s Forum for Culture and Hospitality

 

The Future Of The Forum

Our vision of The Forum is as the central hub for music, history, and community in Bronzeville.  A place that is alive 7 days per week every week of the year.

The Forum is poised to serve, once again, as the heart of social, political, cultural and commercial life in Bronzeville.

 
The Forum resonates so profoundly not only because of the reverence we feel in it and for it, but because its spiritual excavation reflects what’s happening within each of us.
