Throughout the month of February, the Lowcountry African American Cultural Arts Festival has been sponsoring an array of events, celebrating Black History Month. The mission of the LAACAF is to celebrate the gifted and talented artists in the Lowcountry who embrace the African American culture. The vision is to be inclusive and to inspire all of the citizens of the Lowcountry by offering informed, diverse, and culturally inspiring artisans and artists who bring awareness to the African American heritage. “Black History: Remember, Educate, Celebrate” is the momentous theme. According to Mrs. Lillie Fowler Singleton, the CEO and visionary founder, the festival promises to be an enriching experience for our community. She further stated, “Except for a nominal fee of $5 for the movie, all events are free to the public, making it accessible for everyone to participate.”
Please see the attached photos for the planned events for this celebration. Some are ongoing, some have already taken place, and there are several more to come. Please take the time to come out and celebrate with LAACAF; you will truly enjoy yourselves and will learn so much information about the culture. LAACAF would like to express its sincere appreciation to all who have and will be participating in these cultural events this month and to Colleton County and other areas for their support.
