This Memorial Day weekend, DanceAfrica, the nation’s largest festival dedicated to African diasporic dance and music, opens up Brooklyn’s stages and streets to the rich culture and artistry of Mozambique. Now in its 48th year, this beloved celebration lifts up history and arts from Africa for the unofficial start of summer. Enjoy traditional dance and music, view exhilarating visual art, sample FilmAfrica’s illuminating cinematic offerings, participate in classes, workshops, and late-night dance parties, and mingle with neighbors from around the block and around the globe in the iconic outdoor bazaar. It’s all waiting for you at Brooklyn’s most unmissable summer celebration!
