Founded in 2023 by Olivia James, our mission is to create a platform that not only showcases the vibrancy of African heritage but also fosters community engagement and connection among diverse groups. Our flagship events, including the Fashion Show & Afterparty and the Diversity Career Fair, are meticulously designed to highlight talent and creativity within the African community.
We recognize the importance of cultural representation, and our events aim to attract a wide audience, with over 70% of attendees expressing a desire to learn more about African traditions and contemporary expressions.
