A FEAST
OF FAITH
The Karamu Feast, held on the sixth night of Kwanzaa, celebrates Kuumba (Creativity) and brings family, friends, and community together to honor African heritage and shared values. Rooted in African harvest traditions, it’s a time to reflect on the past, celebrate the present, and look to the future with hope.
More than a meal, the feast is rich with symbolism. Tables are adorned with Kwanzaa elements like the kinara, mishumaa saba (seven candles), and harvest fruits. Traditional African-inspired dishes are shared alongside storytelling, music, and performances that celebrate culture. The Karamu Feast highlights unity, gratitude, and community, fostering deeper connections and a renewed commitment to Kwanzaa’s principles.
