Africa Utopia Take Over

Frid 2nd October,

Southbank Centre’s Africa Utopia festival takes over Brixton Library for one night only as part of the Black History Month celebrations. Africa Utopia looks at art and ideas from Africa that are changing the world. Artists from the festival will form an exciting line up of spoken word and live music, featuring a special commission performed by local young poets, all hosted by the fantastic Joshua Idehen. The South bank’s Africa Utopia experience continues at Brixton Library!
