Kwanzaa is a pan-African celebration of heritage and culture and family and community. The principles and the manner of observing the holiday lift up traditional values that are key to our lives.

For people who have never experienced the Kwanzaa festival in the past, I can't think of a better year to take that step forward. Upon their arrival, they will be immersed in a very positive energy, and they will feel good from the inside.

His work is a fine example of contemporary West African art depicting traditional ways of life.
