🚌🎨 SHAAC TOOK A FIELD TRIP… AND LOOK WHO WE RAN INTO! 😂

The Sterling Heights African American Coalition (SHAAC) took a trip to the Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA), and let us tell you… WE WERE OUTSIDE! 🤣

First, a HUGE thank you to the DIA for sponsoring our bus transportation! 🚌❤️ Nothing brings a group together like a FREE bus ride! No driving, no parking fees, and nobody arguing with their GPS! 😂

We came to admire the beautiful artwork, enjoy some culture, and spend time together.

But wait… THERE'S MORE!

We even had the pleasure of meeting U.S. Senator Elissa Slotkin! 🇺🇸

Now, we don't know if she was expecting to meet SHAAC that day, but she certainly met some passionate people! 😂

Between the artwork, the laughter, the conversations, and our unexpected special guest, it was a wonderful day of culture, connection, and community!

A special THANK YOU to the Detroit Institute of Arts for making this experience possible! ❤️

🎃👻 **HAPPY HALLOWEEN & HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR CO-CHAIR, TRACEY DENSON SCOTT!** 🎂🎉

Halloween is supposed to be about ghosts, goblins, and things that go bump in the night… but today, we're celebrating something even scarier…

**ANOTHER BIRTHDAY!** 😂🤣

Please join the Sterling Heights African American Coalition (SHAAC) in wishing our fabulous Co-Chair, **Tracey Denson Scott**, a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 🥳

We're not saying how old she is, because we believe in **equity, inclusion, and the RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT!** 🤐😂

May your day be filled with laughter, love, cake, and absolutely NO committee assignments!

🎃 Happy Halloween, everyone! Stay safe, have fun, and save Tracey a piece of cake!

😂 WHEN PASSIONATE PEOPLE JOIN A COMMITTEE… WATCH OUT! 🤣

At SHAAC, we have some VERY passionate people!

We start with ONE idea, and before you know it, we've created THREE committees, planned TWO events, scheduled FOUR meetings, and somebody has volunteered YOU for something you didn't even know existed! 😂

And don't you dare say, “I have a suggestion…” because congratulations, you're now the CHAIR of that project! 🤣👏

But that's what happens when people genuinely care about their community. Big ideas, strong opinions, lots of laughter, and hearts in the right place!

❤️ At the Sterling Heights African American Coalition (SHAAC), we may not always agree on HOW to get there, but we're united in WHY we're doing it!

And yes… we're always looking for a few more passionate people. Don't worry, we'll ease you into the committees! 😂

📣 COME JOIN US!

We meet on the 4th Monday of every month at 6 PM!
