The Afro Festival is one of the most important events staged by the Museum of African Art, which has been organized since 1997 and represents a unique event in our country and the wider region, which over time has become recognizable for its atmosphere of a true cosmopolitan celebration. During the Festival, exhibitions and lectures, concerts, conversations and travel programs, screenings of films about the arts and cultures of Africa, music, dance and art workshops for children, as well as public guided tours of the museum exhibits are organized.
Within the Festival, as always, you will find musical performances and the African Bazaar - a sales exhibition of items from different parts of Africa: masks, stone and wood sculptures, painted and dyed fabrics, paintings, batik, jewelry and decorative interior items.
