A personal update for friends and fans across the pond: I'm really happy to be giving the opening address at this year’s Sierra Leone Arts & Culture Festival organized by the award-winning Young Sierra Leonean CIC. @Young_Salone The theme for this year’s #SLACFEST is ‘Roots & Renaissance’, a look at the past, reflection on the present, and imagination of a brighter future for creatives at home and in the diaspora. Over the years, the Young Sierra Leonean CIC has become the foremost London-based community organization building bridges between artists, advocates, and creatives at home and in the UK. They close the gap, building a global community of like-minded multidisciplinary creatives who #MakeSierraLeoneFamous.
