The Hub
The hub is a social enterprise that tackles social issues on discrimination and prejudice of the African Diaspora through Art. We move to mobilise especially the young African Diaspora to embrace their African ‘Identity’ and culture. We encompass this by hosting a six-month program of workshops where we mentor and develop creativity using traditional African Arts and craft practices. We also host a market place as a trading arm to fundraise for our workshops.
