The City of Miramar will present its February edition of First Fridays: Network & Chill on Friday, February 6, 2026, from 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at the Miramar Cultural Center. The Black History Month–themed event will feature guest speakers Maurice “Trick Daddy” Young and Florida State Senator Christopher Smith.

The discussion will be moderated by Miramar Mayor Wayne Messam and will focus on entrepreneurship, economic empowerment, and community impact. The program is presented through initiatives led by the City of Miramar Economic Development and Housing Department, under the direction of Anita Fain Taylor.
