‘Welcome home’ is the theme for African Student Association’s annual celebration
February 29, 2008
The Kent African Student Association will hold its annual “African Nights” celebration from 6:30 to 11 p.m. tonight in the Student Center Ballroom. The celebration will display African culture through art, music, fashion and food.
“We do it to show people a side of Africans they do not usually get to see,” KASA programmer Sheila Denanyoh said.
The event will be semi-casual with free food and entertainment. This year’s theme is “Welcome Home.”
“It’s going to be a really nice atmosphere,” Denanyoh said. “People from any race and any culture are welcome.”
Comedian Michael Blackson and R&B singer Miriam Chemmoss will perform at the event.
There will also be an award for the best-dressed person in attendance.
