Event Details

Due to an unexpected power outage at the HCLS Miller Branch, we’ve had to cancel today’s Kwanzaa celebration. We’re sorry for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

Join us for a joyful Kwanzaa celebration honoring African heritage, creativity, and community. This family-friendly gathering features hands-on crafts, reflective art activities, engaging workshops, and a cultural tasting inspired by the seven principles of Kwanzaa.

Event Highlights:
• Opening candle-lighting & brief Kwanzaa presentation
• Mindful movement and mirror-based reflection art
• "Ancestral power & Decolonization" mini-workshop
• African fabric stamping and creative take-home art
• Cultural tasting inspired by First Fruits traditions
• Music, introductions, and community sharing

Light refreshments provided.

Registration is preferred to help us plan materials and food, but walk-ins are warmly welcomed. Feel free to drop in anytime during the event and stay as long as you like.

We look forward to celebrating Kwanzaa with you and creating meaningful memories together!
