We thank our ANCESTORS and ELDERS for clearing a pathway and laying a solid foundation upon which we are ready to build. Chi-Village is growing out of a pot of Chicago seeds planted in love by the many institutions and individuals whose lives embody a commitment to the elevation and progress of the African Diaspora.
WE ARE THE FLOWERS OF OUR ANCESTORS
We collaborated with the talented Chicago designer, visionary, and #ChiVillageKid Desmond Owusu to create the "We Are The Flowers of Our Ancestors" merchandise for Kwanzaa last year. In response to community requests, we've restocked our inventory. While Kwanzaa is celebrated in December, our commitment to embodying its principles extends throughout the year. All proceeds from merchandise sales go towards upcoming programs and events. Order your merch today!
