Afro Urban Society is a celebration and recognition of the African-Urban experience as a local and global phenomenon.
Mission
Afro Urban Society
exists to highlight and preserve the resiliency, interconnection and
existence of people of African descent in urban settings through art
performance and social engagement. We aim to sustain the unified yet
unique expressions of African Urban life by featuring and engaging
Black/African performers and cultural workers through a curated
production of street and contemporary music, dance, visuals and other
artistic expressions.
