WHAT TO EXPECT

Welcome to Sankofest, where the rhythms of ancestral wisdom meet the pulse of modern sensual liberation. Where we celebrate the deeply cultural and spiritual benefits of Sankofa while embracing the freedom of exploring our sensual selves.

The night begins with a Guided Reclamation Ceremony, a transformative tantric energetic ritual to honor your past and reclaim your sensual power. This will flow into our Opening Circle, where we’ll gather as a community to set intentions, align on consent, and prepare to explore the spaces designed to celebrate Black and Brown sensuality.

As the night unfolds, the Group Drum Circle will fill the space with ancestral rhythms, grounding us in collective celebration. Manifest your intentions at the Desire Board, where you can share your fantasies and send them out into the universe.
