About this Event
Celebrate culture, creativity, and community with us at October’s Black Brighton Market ⭐️ This edition of the market is in celebration of Black History month and Black Brighton Market’s 2 year anniversary!
Come with the whole family, and explore a diverse array of artisanal vendors, savouring unique creations. From original pieces of art, to homeware, candles, jewellery, fashion, haircare, jewellery, wellness and more! We are also very excited to announce that The Caribbean Kitchen will be serving as they now have a permanent kitchen at The Actors pub.
There will be a headline performance from the renowned AFLO. the poet, (she/they) is an award-winning Brighton-based spoken word artist, activist and academic who embraces creative expression to disrupt the status quo and inspire social change.
From protests on the streets of Brighton, to celebrations in hills of Jamaica, AFLO. has shared her rhythmic rhymes far and wide and has no intentions of stopping. Her highlights from 2024 so far include featuring in Verve Poetry Festival, expanding her practice during residencies in Anita's Room at Brighton Dome, and heading to the magical fields of Glastonbury to share her work and host the open mic on the Poetry & Words stage.
AFLO. uses poetry as a vehicle to address hard-hitting topics, particularly racism and mental health, primarily speaking from her lived experiences.
You can sign up to showcase your talents at our open mic. Plus, don't miss your chance to win exquisite vendor treasures in our raffle!
