DJ Oluwafemi will be spinning some tunes to make us dance, to inspire us and get into a groove… There will also be opportunities for some art making by the public, help us make VOTE signs for the fence!
Many thanks to Germantown United CDC for supporting our crazy idea, hopefully this is our first of many festivals :-)
