Seeing each other and being seen by each other is important to us so, for all of our events, we kindly request that everyone in the space supports an environment where community can be seen, heard and experienced authentically. Thank your for your courage.
Akuwamgbe is Igbo meaning "wealth should be universal". We have a needs-based sliding price scale at our discretion while still needing financial support to grow.
