Seize the City: Immigration and Belonging 

Part local guide, part community gathering, and part dinner with a story. 

Join 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. 

The evening features engaging storytelling and conversation led by the Levine Museum, who will share the story of immigration and migration that has shaped Charlotte. Enjoy lively conversations, network, swap recommendations, friendly debates, and share your own Charlotte experiences. 

Your ticket includes a classic local barbecue meal from Sweet Lew’s featuring chopped Pork, Collard Greens, Mac & Cheese, Cornbread, and Banana Pudding- plus sweet tea and lemonade. 

Come hungry. Meet new people. Discover Charlotte in a whole new way.
