Black Women Arts & Activism; Nina Simone Miriam Makeba Tribute Festival

The Black Women, Arts and Activism Festival; Nina Simone, Miriam Makeba Tribute aims to highlight and inspire the inseparable connection between the arts and activism as it relates directly to women of African descent in the United States and the African diaspora. Our goal is to highlight, educate and empower women and their communities to identify and use strategies to work for racial justice.

The far reaching goal of the Festival is to educate and empower Black women and through them, black men and families. We will do this by working with women to develop tools and strategies to overcome racial injustice everywhere. Our approach is to use art as a vehicle of conversation, developing and sharing tools for motivation, action and moving our communities forward despite economic and social circumstances.

 
Our inaugural Black Women, Arts and Activism; Nina Simone, Miriam Makeba tribute festival will take place on Sunday, October 6th, 2019, sponsored and hosted by the Atlas Performing Arts Center in NE Washington, DC. The festival will include an art exhibition, vendors, an invigorating panel discussion, culminating with our 11th annual Nina Simone Miriam Makeba tribute concert in the evening.

Who is Nation House?

NationHouse was founded in July 1974 in Washington, D. C.  NationHouse grew out of the student activism of Howard University community in the late 1960s.

One of the oldest independent Afrikan centered schools in the United States and in the DC metropolitan area, NationHouse serves the specific needs of children of Afrikan heritage from pre-school to forth grade.  Today, NationHouse continues to serve families in the development and enculturation of responsible youth who are committed to their families, their community and their Afrikan culture/heritage.

Currently, NationHouse maintains several fully functioning programs including Watoto School, serving pre-kindergarten through fourth grade students and The Afrikan Youth Organization (AYO), which provides after school activities for students.
