We are offering booth space for $20 dollars, and inviting the community out to shop every last Kuumba of the month. Please come out and support our effforts as we strive to raise funds for our Warrior Training, and to support our Cultural Celebrations. If you want to vend click the link and get registered.
We also will be viewing the movie "The First Purge" and having a dynamic discussion afterwards. You will not only be able to shop but engage your mind with other members of our Tribe. The Movie will start at 3pm, so come early to get some shopping in.
We will also have Sister CLowe teaching about the African Heritage Diet as well as giving away free samples. So I hope to see your  face in the place.
