UCC Major Programs
"The formula that makes our
performing arts one of the most accomplished in America"
UMOJA AFRICAN-AMERICAN
CULTURAL and PERFORMING ARTS MUSEUM, Inc.
and the
UCC PRODUCTIONS HALL OF
FAME
The UNITY COMMUNITY ORGANIZATION have been giving
appreciation and honoring awards since its (UNITY COMMUNITY CENTER) beginning in 1983.
In the past, we called it the UCC HONOREES; in 2019 we changed the name to
UCC PRODUCTIONS HALL OF FAME.
We believe in the importance of our young people and the community becoming
aware of those who have made great sacrifices, accomplishments
and who have worked tirelessly educating, helping and contributing to our
people within the United States of America and/or abroad.
We also believe that we must continuously teach our young people of our
ancestors,
leaders, mentors, role-models, celebrities and etc.,
through venues such as banquets, events and gatherings for encouragement,
educational and historical purposes.
