August 29 | 6-9 PM | Wilma Rudolph Event Center

Founded in 2022, the BLK Xcellence Banquet is Clarksville’s premier event recognizing the brilliance and excellence of Black-owned businesses and Black-led organizations.

Too often, Black businesses, leaders, and organizations are overlooked by mainstream recognition programs. In response, we created this signature event for us, by us — a platform intentionally designed to spotlight and celebrate the outstanding achievements of those who are shaping the future of our community with professionalism, innovation, and purpose.

This prestigious ceremony honors individuals and organizations who exemplify excellence in business, leadership, community advocacy, and professionalism. From entrepreneurs and nonprofit leaders to educators and changemakers, our honorees reflect the strength, creativity, and dedication of Clarksville’s Black community.

More than just a celebration, the event serves as a vital fundraiser for Black Clarksville. Proceeds directly support Black Clarksville’s ongoing efforts to develop programs, events, and initiatives that uplift, empower, and inspire the African American community in Clarksville. Whether it’s through educational workshops, youth engagement, or business development, every dollar raised helps us continue our mission of advocacy and advancement.

Join us for an unforgettable evening of inspiration, recognition, and community, as we honor those working tirelessly to make and keep the Black Clarksville community exceptional.
