Many take for granted the love, effort and dedication some men have for their children, especially AFRICAN MEN! It is our badge of honor to provide model excellence in our children, which is why our kids are joyful AND aspire for greatness despite the challenges of life.

It is you fathers that create that in your children.
So in a world that typically acknowledges and caters to mothers in the parenting arena, I want you to know… I see you (AfriCAN fathers)… Respect and admiration to you all.

Celebrate, enjoy time with & make precious memories with your kids on this wonderful day 🙏🏾

It has been a challenging year and our team worked hard adjusting personally to the rapid changing demands and then focused on supporting our nonprofit.

We’ve started discussion on how we can begin to deliver value in 2021 given the current life circumstances and we look forward to a thriving year filled with fun, exciting & enriching experiences.

So stay tuned and Happy Holidays to you all!

SINCE OUR 1ST EVENT...

- We've grown steadily each month with 4 fun events in total until COVID-19 struck
- We've created a space where African influence shapes the XPerience & the community adapts to it
- We've got non-Africans learning our dance & about our culture
- We've negotiated potential partnerships with other venues
- Have expanded our commitment to share our African XPs with the larger community through our events
- We've assembled a strong team of diverse leaders who've already started work on bringing our mission to life
🎉🥳🎊🙌🏾

We hope you enjoyed our journey so far and YOU'll join us in our adventure moving forward! 🙏🏾
