Programs & Events
Programs
Through our programs, we provide solutions for educational disparity and mass incarceration, and foster economic and international development. We engage the broader community in West African culture by providing educational seminars, lectures, and workshops designed to educate our youth and advance cultural understanding.
Awodi Drumming Program
Interactive workshops rooted in West African tradition. Participants learn rhythms, engage in call-and-response, and experience music as a space for healing, connection, and cultural education.
Corporate Events
From Black History Month celebrations in Olympia to dialogues and film programs like Unfulfilled Promises: A Conversation About Reparations, we center stories, culture, and justice in our communities.
Education and Community Outreach
We collaborate with schools, universities, and community groups to enrich curricula, foster cultural understanding, and bring African heritage to life for new generations.
Global Connections
Our work honors African arts and history worldwide, building partnerships that bridge local roots and global reach.
