Karibu! (Welcome!)
We are inviting everyone out to Qilombo to participate in a day of festivities, mural painting, cleaning and gardening!
This project will be part of several different phases to create Oakland’s first Afrika Town! Qilombo’s role in Afrika Town will be immense. We are in the process of upgrading the space: building onto our community garden, adding a lovely mural on the side of the building, and doing the first steps to putting in a kitchen.
This kitchen is very much needed due to all the food programs we have at Qilombo. Also we will be having a potluck bbq so we need donations of side dishes and goodies, too!
If you can make food to bring or buy food to grill, please feel free to let us know here. Please come out to help us beautify and empower the community out of love for the people!
Mwezo wote wa watu
