Natural, organic, skin care, makeup, hair, beats, African clothes, and many fantastic products made by entrepreneurs in Edmonton were being sold.
On November 19, the second floor of the Edmonton Downtown Farmers Market was transformed into an African market called Afrifest.
Afrifest is a collaboration between BOMYEG and the Africa center to celebrate Black-owned businesses in Edmonton.
The one-off African market created an avenue for community members and customers to interact with business owners and get direct information about products and services, patronize Black-owned businesses, and enjoy a variety of family-friendly fun activities and bead-making workshops for kids skincare adults.
