Preserve Rumba Notes, Preserve Black Joy

Hello community,

For years, Rumba Notes and Frank Ulwenya has been more than just a nightclub — it’s been a safe haven, a celebration of Black joy, music, and resilience. A space where generations have danced, connected, and created memories.

But now, the beloved community venue is at risk of closing its doors.

Like many Black-owned spaces, they've faced rising costs, shrinking support, and challenges beyond their control after COVID. So, we’re turning to you — our community, our family — to help keep the lights on, the music playing, and the culture alive.

Your support will go directly toward rent. No amount is too small, and every dollar brings us closer to saving this cornerstone of our community.

Let’s fight for the spaces that fight for us.

Let’s save Rumba Notes together!
