Welcoming Visitors

During the summer the Black Cultural Centre welcomes visitors from around the world who want to discover African Nova Scotia culture and history. This summer has been no different with the Centre seeing a record number of visitor this summer. During some of these visits we had special guests that participated.

In August we had a group of visitors from Kansas City and special guests Wayn Hamilton, Executive Director of the Nova Scotia office of African Nova Scotian Affairs and artist / musician Sobaz Benjamin as they performed a African Libation Ceremony outside the Centre in front of the freedom stone.
