Why Donate to the African Arts Academy?
When you support African Arts Academy, you open doors for Bay Area children and residents of the African Diaspora. Your donation provides access to high-quality instruction in African dance and drumming, art forms that uplift our community with pride, confidence, joy, and a meaningful connection to their cultural roots.
Help Us Build Global Cultural Bridges
A portion of all donations supports our Student Exchange Scholarship Program. Selected students will travel to our San Francisco sister city, Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, to participate in an intensive dance residency with our partner institutions. This life-changing experience deepens cultural understanding and strengthens their artistic journey.
We are dedicated to preserving African cultural heritage by empowering the next generation through arts education and cultural exchange. Together, we can ensure these traditions continue to thrive and uplift our community.
