(2021 pick) Africa Fest centers on all things African, especially food and music, but it’s really all about inclusion. This year’s theme is “Building and Bridging Communities.” The fest starts with “Strides For Africa,” a 3k/5k run/walk and clean water fundraiser. Throughout the day, African immigrants in the Madison area will showcase their heritages with performances, and Tani Diakite & the Afrofunkstars, Atimevu, Limanya, The Nigerian Masquerade, and Sista Sensi & the Buds will all take the stage. Plus there will be African and African American food and African arts and crafts for sale.
