Garifuna Social returns Oct 11 in Brooklyn! An evening of culture, conversation & community at Lips Café during Indigenous Peoples’ weekend.
About this Event

Join us for the third edition of A Garifuna Social—a vibrant evening dedicated to conversation, connection, and cultural celebration. This gathering is designed to bring people together in the spirit of community while honoring the rich traditions of the Garifuna people.

Expect a warm, welcoming atmosphere where you can:

  • Mix and mingle with fellow culture lovers, creatives, and community members
  • Engage in meaningful conversation about heritage, identity, and shared experiences
  • Celebrate through music, storytelling, and tradition in an intimate setting

This edition takes place during Indigenous Peoples’ Day Weekend, a time to honor resilience, roots, and the power of cultural preservation. We’re proud to host it at Lips Café, a beloved neighborhood gem owned by a dynamic St. Vincentian mother-and-son duo, making it the perfect backdrop for this cultural exchange.

Whether you are Garifuna, Caribbean, or simply curious to learn and share in the celebration, A Garifuna Social welcomes you.
