About AfriKin

AfriKin Foundation is where art, culture, and community converge to create lasting change. Rooted in the legacies of Global Africa and the Black World, we believe that creativity is not just an aesthetic practice—it is testimony, remedy, and reclamation. Through exhibitions, performances, conversations, and community engagement, we honor the sacred role of art as a vessel for memory, healing, and transformation.

For more than a decade, AfriKin has stood as a cultural anchor during Miami Art Week/Art Basel, offering a values-driven alternative where creativity meets conscience. Our work provides paid opportunities for artists, mentorship for youth, mental wellness initiatives, and spaces for dialogue around equity and ethical practices in the arts. Each program is designed to inspire, empower, and unite—affirming that art belongs to everyone.

Your donation makes this vision possible. By supporting AfriKin, you are fueling:

  • Bold exhibitions like Through Creation, We Find Meaning: SCENES From HOME, which elevate 60+ artists from over 30 countries and territories and center healing practices.

  • Youth mentorship and arts education, creating pathways for future leaders.

  • Mental wellness through art, embedding practices of care in cultural spaces.

  • Community access, ensuring programming is free or affordable to the public.

At AfriKin, we affirm that Through Creation, We Find Meaning—and through giving, we create change. On Give Miami Day 2025, join us in making Miami a sanctuary for art that heals, connects, and uplifts.

Communal. Cultural. Ethical.

Mission

AfriKin Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to using arts and cultural experiences to build bridges between personal creativity and the collective good of humanity. We sustain cultural programming designed to highlight the role of art and culture in human development and enrichment, emphasizing cultural connection and kinship across ethnic lines. AfriKin nurtures artists, educates communities, and promotes sustainable cultural industries that inspire global connection.

The word AfriKin fuses “Africa” and “kinship,” reflecting our belief that we are all connected through culture and creativity.

For over a decade, AfriKin has produced programs and exhibitions that promote education, cultural preservation, and social awareness. Through our three pillars — academic articulation, creative artistry, and cultural industries — we engage communities locally and globally to foster unity, empathy, and progress.

When you support AfriKin, you are opening creative pathways for learning, understanding, and economic development — empowering artists, educating youth, and cultivating thriving creative economies across the African Diaspora.
