Howard County 2025 Kwanzaa Celebration

Immerse yourself in the rich cultural heritage and values that this unique holiday embodies!

Together, we will explore the seven core principles, or "Nguzo Saba," which are the foundation of Kwanzaa: Unity (Umoja), Self-Determination (Kujichagulia), Collective Work and Responsibility (Ujima), Cooperative Economics (Ujamaa), Purpose (Nia), Creativity (Kuumba), and Faith (Imani).

Through engaging activities, cultural performances, and community reflection, you'll gain a deeper understanding of how these principles can be integrated into daily life to foster community, empowerment, and cultural pride. Whether you're new to Kwanzaa or have celebrated it for years, there's something for everyone to learn and enjoy. Don't miss this opportunity to connect, reflect, and celebrate the spirit of Kwanzaa with us!

And don't forget to join us at the Harriet Tubman Cultural Center on Saturday, December 20 from 12-2pm for our Kwanzaa Market Day! Support Black-owned businesses this holiday season and do some holiday shopping while embracing the spirit of Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics)-to build and maintain our own stores, shops and other businesses and to profit from them together.
