Come out and join HABESHA - Baltimore as we introduce the newest branch member of our family, HABESHA - DC, which will be active for the 2012 - 2013 academic year.

Back by popular demand, the Sankofa Street Festival brings you best of urban culture, inspired by African consciousness, and live musical and spoken word performances. Featuring the youth of HABESHA - Baltimore, this one-day event in the cultural capital on DC on Georgia Ave will be a great opportunity to mix and mingle with youth and elders, artists and activists, the African and the Diaporan community.

All proceeds support HABESHA - Baltimore’s upcoming Journey of Self-Discovery to Ghana and Ethiopia this summer!

Get a fresh African outfit straight from the continent, while you dance your worries away, while enjoying inspiring discussions and conscious books!!!
