In addition, the festival featured children’s
games, vendors, a fashion show, and fun-filled educational activities.
All activities took place outdoors at the Delph Courtyard (Arizona State
University’s West campus). It was a festive day for family, and
friends to enjoy a day of African music, dance, art, culture, and food!

The mission of AFASA, a 501(c) (3) organization
that was founded in 1992, is to bring African people and friends of
Africa in Arizona together to promote African awareness through
educational and cultural activities. The organization is an invaluable
educational resource about Africa in the state of Arizona. Since its
inception in 1997, the African Festival has become the most elaborate
annual community outreach event about Africa and the African people in
the greater Phoenix metropolitan area.
Admission and parking were free. The event is
being sponsored, in part, by the Arizona Commission on the Arts and by
Clippers Magazine.
