Join us for an intimate conversation over authentic Haitian food with the legendary singer, activist, and Vodou Priestess Carole "Mawoule" Demesmin. Prepare to be inpsired, uplifted and empowered by Carole's journey and wisdom in this discussion led by Dr. Cécile Accilien. This event offers a unique opportunity to connect with a remarkable artist, and to discover how she has been using her voice, career, artistry and Vodou practice to preserve Haitian culture and create new narratives surrounding Haiti for over four decades. Delicious, authentic (and did we mention FREE) Haitian food will be served at this event, so make sure to RSVP by October 20th so we can make sure you get a plate! See you there!!
