About the Event
This year, the event is taking place on Saturday, March 7, 2026 in the Buchanan Ballroom of the Community Life Center. Over the course of 2 years, we outgrew the space, so we moved to a Ballroom out east. Bringing back everything you love. Adding everything WE need. Cultivating and curating a space designed for us to be unapologetically us over a bomb luxury brunch, where we're dressed to the nine's; ingesting the medicine that is laughter, basking in shared wisdom, and edifying one another for the battles ahead and the victories that are ultimately ours.
Host: Mr. Tony Styxx
Luxury Chef: Temicka Chef Tweet Moore
Musical Soundtrack: D.j. Shay
Live Musical Entertainment: Ivan Patrick Elias Moreland

The Symbols
The symbol atop the Black Power Couple’s Brunch crest is an Adinkra symbol, visual symbols that represent concepts, proverbs and aphorisms originating from the Gyaman people of Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire. This particular symbol incorporates “ODO NNYEW FIE KWAN” which symbolizes the power of love, and the message “Love will never lose it’s way”. Or, to paraphrase another adage, “Love never fails”.
The Purpose
The Black Power Couple’s Brunch is a networking and edification brunch centered on the preservation and celebration of Black Love. Indianapolis is home to countless Black business owners, business professionals, lawyers, physicians, authors and creatives. Those same titans of industry are often in loving partnerships with a spouse or significant other, many of whom are also professionals of high stature. Unfortunately, the propensity for Black power couples to thrive is often challenging to navigate as competing ambitions, imposter syndrome, balance shifts in earning power, along with and the demands of juggling child care, home upkeep and a personal relationship, (often in that order) get in the way of love and affection. We aim to disrupt that.
The vision for this inaugural event is for Black Couples to break bread and share collective wisdom through their trials and triumphs, while participating in guided discussions on topics that can strengthen and embolden the power of black love.
