 THE 4TH MEL KING MONTHLY BRUNCH TO BE HELD AT THE PIANO CRAFT GALLERY IN BOSTON’S SOUTH END

(BOSTON) - The South End Brunch Club (TSEBC) will host their next Mel King Monthly Brunch at the Piano Craft Gallery in the Piano Factory Apartments, 793 Tremont Street, South End Boston on Sunday, October 19th, 11AM-2PM.

Mel King, who passed away in 2023, was a civil rights activist, organizer and university instructor. King opened his home to the community for over fifty years. TSEBC will award their 2nd Mel King Leadership Award to Aziza Robinson-Goodnight, a community leader and activist who is being recognized for her work with Boston’s young leaders. Aziza has worked in Boston’s Black Community on issues ranging from reparations to entrepreneurship. She is committed to shaping, reenergizing and creating systemic changes in her native Boston. 

The brunch program segment will be led by TSEBC founding member and Creative Director Bless Robinson who is also a poet/singer/holistic healer. The program segment is entitled “Healing: Peeling Back The Layers”. Bless Robinson will lead those in attendance with self healing methods that they can continue to practice. “Healing begins within and I am pleased to share the methods, techniques and holistic therapy that has shaped, shifted and transformed my journey. And now I stand in my purpose, the blueprint of my ancestors.” says Robinson. 

The TSEBC’s first three Mel King Monthly Brunches, held in 2025 have been wildly successful with all three reaching capacity status.
