about us
Sharing the Soul of Africa, One Event at a Time.
Raven AfriKulture (RAK) was born as a response because it’s time for African heritage to emerge from the margins and be celebrated on the global stage. We are here to elevate new voices through exhibitions, festivals, workshops and events.
Our vision is clear: to be Scotland’s leading platform for African art and music. We are committed to inclusivity, equity, and amplifying African voices. We won’t stop until African culture is recognized in Scotland’s creative conversation.
Cultural Authenticity
We stand for African voices to express themselves as they wish.
Radical Creativity
We celebrate the bold, the unconventional, and the creative in all forms.
Social Consciousness
Fun's in our DNA, but so is responsibility. We create change for a better society.
Inclusive Community
We have a no-gatekeeping policy. Everyone's welcome to participate.
