The 4th Annual Baltimore MET Gala: Timeless in Every Sense
On September 13, 2025, The HALL at Live! Casino & Hotel became the backdrop for the 4th Annual Baltimore MET Gala — a dazzling celebration of fashion, art, culture, and cuisine under the theme TIMELESS: The Evolution of Style: Past. Present. Future. From a blue carpet that read like a living fashion exhibition to the ICON + IMPACT Awards honoring Baltimore's best, the night was a statement. The 5th Annual is already set for August 29, 2026.


Elegance Meets the Field: The 10th Annual Polo X Jazz Celebrity Event in Dumfries, VA
On October 18, 2025, Garrison Park in Dumfries, VA marked a decade of excellence as the 10th Annual Polo X Jazz took over the field. Produced by Susan Smallwood of Grandiosity Events, the milestone celebration brought together all-Black polo players, live jazz, luxury experiences, and a crowd dressed to match the occasion — all in support of five foundations, including the Derrick R. Wood Foundation. Ten years in, and Polo X Jazz is still setting the standard.

Industry leaders, policymakers, and advocates filled the room with one shared purpose: advancing the mission of Black women in construction at the national level. During one of D.C.'s most powerful weeks in Black civic life, NABWIC's presence was a statement all its own.
