Celebrate Umoja (unity), the first day of Kwanzaa, with friends and family at MoAD! We are partnering with the Village Project for its 11th annual Kwanzaa celebration throughout San Francisco. The celebration is seven days of community events highlighting the seven principles of Kwanzaa (the Nguzo Saba) and opens at Museum of the African Diaspora at noon until 5 pm.

Come to hear the downhome sounds of blues musician Alabama Mike; poetry by Oakland’s Young, Gifted and Black; Kwanzaa history and principles by the Village Project; and participate in a hands-on art activity with MoAD’s resident art teacher, Nicole Dixon.

ALL EVENTS ARE FREE & OPEN TO THE COMMUNITY
