The St. Louis African Arts Festival is held in beautiful Forest Park. Each year the festival attracts a diverse audience of thousands of local residents and out-of-town visitors during the Memorial Day weekend. The Festival draws the community together in celebration of the rich contributions of Africa and the African Diaspora (diaspora--people settled far from their ancestral homelands). The St. Louis African Arts Festival began in 1991 as an outgrowth of the 34th Annual African Studies Conference hosted by Washington University. The mission of the festival is to increase awareness of the global contributions of African people.
