Description
The exclusive gathering will include Sierra Leonian dishes and experience-centered interactions with art, customs, religion, clothing, and various languages from Sierra Leone. All proceeds raised will be used to benefit the people of Sierra Leone through Lifegate in Africa.
The main course will be rice based, with a choice of chicken, beef or fish. Side options will include black-eyed peas, plantains, and a salad.
As their own guide, participants will navigate different stations that highlight Sierra Leonian art, customs, religion, clothing, and language. Each display will afford them the opportunity to touch, see, and hear the culture of West Africa.
Daryl Allen of Optimal Chiropractic is a sponsor of this event.
