AfriKin, [https://afrikin.art/%20] the Miami-based 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that focuses on creating cultural connections through immersive and engaging artistry, in partnership with the City of North Miami and the North Miami Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), is thrilled to present AfriKin Art Fair 2024.

Guests will be inspired to introspect their place in the world around them as they view a showcase of African contemporary art that explore the connections that draw humans, the earth, and the cosmos together and define them. Furthermore, themes of displacement, regeneration, healing, and environmental challenges will be illuminated through various mediums including visual art, performance art, photography, and interactive digital installation.

An immersive climate change installation titled 'Submerged Sentience' will be a centerpiece to this year's event and will feature an interactive series of photographs, films, and reenactments. Viewers will engage with issues such as water scarcity, rising sea levels, and climate change - issues that not only impact Global Africa but also people around the world. Other installations will include an exploration of African ecosystems entitled 'Delta's Roar' and 'The Salted Language', a poetic narrative underscoring the deep correlation between environmental destruction and cultural erosion.

The AfriKin Art Fair 2024 will also feature artist talks on inclusivity, the power of art to transcend barriers, and the rallying call to support those in adversity. A global fashion runway will showcase designers from countries around the world. AfriKin will also honor Miami-Dade police and firefighters through 'AfriKin: Guardians of Time: An Evening of Art and Honor for Miami-Dade First Responders.' First responders can see more at https://afrikin.art/guardians-of-time/.

According to Alfonso Brooks, founder of AfriKin, "The goal of this year's theme is to unpack the role of art and culture in sustainable development; both are endangered, and we must use every voice to join the fight for a better world. As our slogan says, creative expressions are the foundation of liberation."

This highly anticipated event will be held at Maison AfriKin in the Scott Galvin Community Center (1600 NE 126th St., North Miami, FL 33181) on December 1st-8th, 2024, from 11am-7pm each day.
