JamAfrika is our new project which will use reggae music as a means of connecting African and Jamaican communities.
We will capture participants’ memories and cultural experiences of reggae music in their personal histories and cultural memories from 1960s-present day, shared through tunes, music and song.
We will explore reggae and African music, the relationship between the two and how that has connected; bringing communities together, building cultural pride and connection across continents, with a mixture of live music performance and heritage sharing activities.
