This event contains fashion from all over Africa and people gather to showcase their unique creations on Indigenous African creations. The importance of this event is that it is viewed as more than a fashion show for people. The fashion and the event carry a much greater meaning. David Gulu, a designer and organizer mentioned how fashion can convey emotions like joy and also highlight a message of peace. Not only does the event convey positive messages, it also is seen as empowering for women. The event is always organized during Women's Month and the event highlights women in a positive light. -Melinda]]> 2021-04-09 15:59:00 UTC https://padlet.com/aponchun/5p38r5abt4w8yy2k/wish/1400518405 gfeather https://padlet.com/aponchun/5p38r5abt4w8yy2k/wish/1404758619 The Cape Town international jazz festival is the biggest jazz festival in all of Africa.
