WILMINGTON — Port City United, Northside Food Co-Op, Black Arts Alliance and Coast 97.3 are hosting an event that will feed the soul and last through the week as the Thanksgiving holiday approaches.
At DREAMS of Wilmington at 4 p.m. “Soul Food Sunday” will get underway, featuring a meal prepared by community chefs and the 5 p.m. screening of the 1997 classic “Soul Food.” It stars Vanessa Williams, Vivica Fox, Nia Long, and Michael Beach, and centers around a Chicago family going through trials and tribulations. Their Sunday family dinners diminish when the matriarch of the family falls ill and leaves the family lost.
After the screening of the film and community meal, a box of canned goods will be given away to attendees —one per household — to help with Thanksgiving preparations this week.
DREAMS is located at 901 Fanning St.
