“The theme of this festival is the African Renaissance. It’s about the Africa we want to create for tomorrow. It’s about artists across disciplines talking about the future of their art form. The festival brings together artists and intellectuals from dozens of African and African Diaspora countries, including the United States, Brazil, Haiti, France and Cuba”.
– Kwame Kwei-Armah, a British playwright and actor who is the festival’s artistic director.
The festival will be held in Dakar, Senegal from December 10 – 31, 2010
