This is a template for describing a Colored Convention. If the convention is an annual event, do not make a page for a single occurrence—that is, do not make a page for "The Second Annual Convention for the Improvement of the Free People of Color". Instead, add information about that convention under a heading in the page for "The Annual Convention for the Improvement of the Free People of Color".

Fill out the infobox above with as much information as possible. Then describe the state or national convention briefly in this section.
