Join us for the first event co-presented by Indigo Arts Alliance and Surf Point
On the heels of recent travels throughout a combined 11 countries in Africa, speakers will discuss the importance of the Art of the African Diaspora, also referred to as the Black Diaspora, whose global impact on culture and society around the world can no longer be denied. You are invited to listen in as our three scholars share observations about both traditional and contemporary art in Africa - art, food, music, and business innovation, which are creating a cultural tsunami on the continent and abroad.
