Nne Agwu is a 4-day family storytelling festival to inspire the creative well-being of the melanin rich UK communities and support the evolution of the oral tradition of storytelling.

*promote our culture and celebrate the artistry of the oral traditions of storytelling.
*create new stories for the genre and provide a platform nurturing emerging and professional storytellers.

*reconnect with the natural environment and develop our creative and spiritual well-being.

* Create an Afrakan storytelling village on the landscape of our motherland and Britain.
