About the Celebration
The Stage Show

This year marks a special milestone! For the first time, our annual Kwanzaa celebration will be an all-live, non-animated production featuring actors, live music, poetry, singing, dancing, and more.

This original show, “Kwanzaa: The Village It Takes!” was written by Jessica Johnson, A Red Circle's Community Arts Director. The production was initially developed as a virtual performance during the pandemic, but what began as a pivot has blossomed into a powerful, mixed-generation stage tradition. Our impressive line-up features up-and-coming artists performing alongside well-seasoned professionals, making this a truly memorable experience.


Shop & Dine

Before the performance, discover unique finds at our popular Small Business Vendor Fair and support independent local entrepreneurs.

Then, enjoy a delectable Soul Food Dinner, prepared by A Red Circle's in-house culinarians and long-time partnering chefs.


Our Mission

All of this is presented at an extremely reasonable rate. Proceeds from ticket sales will go directly towards renovating A Red Circle's community art space, in Ferguson, MO, allowing us to continue providing vital arts and healing experiences to the community. We also seek donations to help offset costs and keep ticket prices at a minimum.
