Essential Gathering Details
Who can participate?
What is a cultural guardian?
We warmly welcome traditional performers, visual artists, historians, and cultural guardians from continental Africa and the global sister nations of the diaspora to showcase their heritage.
Guardians are dedicated community leaders, elders, and heritage seekers who actively support our mission to preserve and showcase authentic tribal lineages, oral histories, and sacred traditions.
When does registration close?
How are performers selected?
Early registrations remain open until our initial circle of guardians is fully formed. Secure your place today to guarantee priority access to upcoming performer applications and festival updates.
Our heritage committee carefully reviews all submissions to ensure authentic representation of tribal lineage, traditional acoustic instrumentation, and the historical accuracy of all presented crafts.
