About the event
Join us at the Winter Park Community Center for the day-long celebration of Umoja and the principle of unity! Enjoy a drum circle, dancing, performances, food provided by Flava Tribe, plus ancestor veneration to honor those loved ones that are no longer with us.
SHabari Gani! All are invited to our Day - 1 Central Florida Kwanzaa Celebration of Umoja at the Winter Park Community Center sponsored by The Equity Council Corp in conjunction with Afrikan Kulcha School, and the Hannibal Square Heritage Center.
Kwanzaa is a cultural holiday created in 1966 that is a community celebration of African culture and an acknowledgment of seven moral principles referred to as Nguzo Saba (En-goo-zoh-Sah-Bah). Nguzo Saba are cultural principles practiced daily in African culture both on the continent of Africa and by African's in the Diaspora. On December 26th, 2021, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., during the seven day-long celebrations of Kwanzaa, celebrate the lighting of Kinara and the lighting of the first candle of Kwanzaa, the Black Candle.
