Kukuza Fest is the first ever Black Family Music festival series in the country.
The word “Kukuza” means “amplify” in Swahili, and Kukuza Fest is our effort to provide children and families access to performers and music that welcome, reflect and celebrate them.
Powered in association with WEE Nation Radio, and streaming directly on WEE Nation Radio’s Facebook and YouTube pages, Kukuza Fest is produced by Family Music Forward.
This unapologetically Black celebration of our collective abundance, resilience and creativity is part of FMF’s broad strategy to transform the systems of white supremacy and patriarchy, which impacts us all.
