Kalabash, held monthly at The Salmon and Compass, is a vibrant celebration of African culture. Each night focuses on one African nation, promoting awareness by screening insightful socio-political documentaries upstairs, while downstairs an eclectic crowd move to African grooves.
Each Kalabash event features cutting-edge documentaries and films which are followed by question-and-answer sessions with experts or the film's producers. On the ground floor, live music and dance from the country in question entertain the punters and guest DJs spin Afro grooves from the continent and Diaspora, never failing to fill the dance-floor.
The events aim to encourage recognition of the rich diversity between African nations, to celebrate cultural heritage and explore socio-political situations. For more information visit www.kalabashmovement.com
