The African World Festival has been a staple in the city of Detroit for over 30 years. This year as a way to gear up and promote this year’s festival, Midtown Inc. helped produce the night’s musical selections at the New Center Park. With Featured Artist Toby Foyeh and Orchestra Africa on stage, families from all around came to sit and listen under the night sky.
The African World festival will take place on the grounds of the Charles H. Wright Museum located on E. Warren in Midtown Detroit. August 16-18 from the hours of 11am – 11pm daily, with free admission. Nija Kai, Director of the African World Festival had this to say about the tune-up, “The festival is grateful to Midtown Detroit Inc.” Along with the festival, “we have the ability to reach diverse cultures,” says Kai of the many who are attracted to the festival.
