On the last Friday of this year families were invited to experience the 3rd annual Kwanzaa family celebration brought to you by Pride Black of San Diego and the Friends of Malcolm X Library.  The Malcolm X Library on Market street was the location. 

The special event featured a variety of interesting and inspiring events.

Sound healing, yoga, healthy snacks, storytelling, a Kwanzaa paint party – throw in some African dancing, some free books and there you have it, another intriguing family Kwanzaa celebration.

“We wanted to have a family celebration that was entertaining, with an emphasis on catering to the kids,” said event coordinator Prince Graham.

“We wanted to honor the culture and the community. This is a way of keeping this culture alive and a way to keep the community connected to the library,” Graham said.
