The Hamilton Black History Committee is pleased to host the 22nd Annual Rev. John C. Holland Awards, taking place on February 10, 2018 at Hamilton's beautiful Liuna Station Banquet and Conference Centre. The Rev. John C. Holland Awards were established to celebrate the rich cultural heritage of our community, with a particular focus on the contributions of African Canadians to the social, economic, and cultural life of our entire city. Since its inception in 1996, the event has received broad support from the community. Each year, hundreds of Hamiltonians join with the Black History Committee to acknowledge and celebrate excellence. These awards have become one of the premier events in our community and a valued symbol of achievement. You can take pride in knowing that part proceeds for each ticket purchased helps to fund the scholarships we provide. We look forward to celebrating excellence in our Black community with you!
