Akwaaba!
Welcome! Children’s Kwanzaa Village is a place of community and learning for children and families of the African Diaspora.

It Takes A Village

Children’s Kwanzaa Village
Every year since 2017, during the yearly celebration of Kwanzaa, we gather together to celebrate, learn, and share our creativity with one another.
This event is an opportunity for us to promote unity in our community, educate our children about our rich history, strengthen our families and celebrate our greatness.
We value Family, Community, and Culture.
We honor our Children, Elders, and Ancestors.
Find photos and video in our online gallery, and join us for the next one!
Due to current community health concerns and to keep our village safe our celebration will remain virtual until further notice.

Kwanzaa Corner
While the celebration of Kwanzaa happens once a year, we make sure we are practicing the principles of Kwanzaa- the Nguzo Saba– all year long. Our Kwanzaa Corner provides education and resources to adults and children to promote and encourage the practice of these principles every day.

Community Resources
We believe our children are independent thinkers and high performers in school, in the arts, and across our communities. We strive to ensure families’ needs are met, and continue to connect with organizations across the diaspora to close resource gaps.

About Kwanzaa
Kwanzaa is an annual celebration of African-American culture which is held from December 26 to January 1, culminating in gift-giving and a feast of faith, called Karamu Ya Imani.
It was created by Maulana Karenga and first celebrated in 1966!
To uphold the mission of educating our children and celebrating our greatness, we deemed it necessary to bring this celebration of black history culture and tradition to the fore front where it belongs.

About Us
An annual, community event to celebrate the tradition of Kwanzaa. Curated by 2 Brooklyn Girls from the beautiful island of St. Vincent!
