First woman to serve on Concord City Council gets TV show home makeover, hosts watch party

CONCORD, N.C. – It is Black History Month and we are recognizing a local community icon: Ella Mae Small.

Small was the first woman to serve on the Concord City Council. Back in November, Small got a home makeover at her Brookdale Concord Parkway Community. It was part of Brookdale Senior Living’s interior design show called “Make It Mine.”

On Thursday, there was a special watch party at Small’s community to view her episode premiere on YouTube.
