Patronage
The 100 Men Hall’s mission is to promote and preserve the hall, a centuries’ old nexus of social justice and artistic expression for a population historically denied access to both, in the Jim Crow South. Today, the hall fosters civic participation in a variety of causes to promote the greater common good, supporting creative expression and activist art for women and men who have struggled to find a mainstream connection due to their social or artistic convictions, or minority status. Those familiar with the Hall consider it a beloved community treasure; those learning about it for the first time are instantly captivated by its storied past.
Your monthly contribution to our branded events creates a wide web to support the arts and enables the Hall to tell its story by hiring predominately artists of color to contribute to the narrative.
A Conversation With Lions

The Hall invites Elders from the Black community to sit down to dinner and have a conversation about what it was like to be Black in the Bay, back in the day. These videos are archived on our website and provide a more in depth understanding of how the 100 Men Hall was a pillar in the foundation of this community.
A Soulful Christmas
