Go Africa Ignites Islington’s Black Cultural Centre with Culture, Community, and Creativity
Stepping into the heart of the borough’s newest cultural hub, Go Africa took a three month residency at the Black Cultural Centre in Islington from June through to August, ushering in a season of African heritage, creative expression, and community empowerment.
Under its three-month tenure running until mid-August, Go Africa hosted a range of community events.
Go Africa Community Hub is a registered social enterprise dedicated to empowering African and Caribbean communities through education, economic development, health initiatives and the arts.
Rooted in culture and community, we tackle issues of discrimination and identity by mobilising especially young people to embrace their African heritage. Through creative workshops, mentorship and traditional African arts and crafts; we nurture pride, skills and self-expression.
Our vibrant marketplace supports local businesses and brings people together, helping to build a more connected, self-sufficient and thriving community.
Founder Anna Nije shares:
“Our hub plays a vital role in sparking positive change across African-Caribbean communities. We focus on real needs—creating space for growth, development, and meaningful connection.
Through a holistic approach, we’re working towards a more prosperous and self-sufficient Global Majority community. Our marketplace is a key part of that—supporting local businesses while meeting community needs and expanding our collective impact.”
