African Global Roots (AGR) is designed to strengthen the diverse African communities in Minnesota by promoting and nurturing their artistic expressions and professional development. AGR’s 3rd Annual Arts Festival & Business Fair will take place on 6/30/12. Location TBD. Please hold the date! This year’s theme is "A Pan African Hub for Networking & Entertainment." Up and coming artists will be showcased, and music, dance, fashion, and food will entertain all in attendance! In preparation for the event, sponsors, exhibitors/vendors, and advertisers are sought. AGR estimates 500 people will attend the Arts Festival & Business Fair. To achieve this attendance goal, 5,000 copies of the festival edition newsletter will be circulated in the Twin Cities Metro area. Therefore, your support will reach and provide many community members the opportunity to attend and/or showcase their business, agency or individual talents/interests.
