Description

Ankara Bazaar resembles the vivid West African patterned fabrics (ankara) that inspire its creators and avid followers: vibrant and chic, yet warm and handmade. The event blends the best of a fashion and homewares pop-up store with the convivial energy of an open-air market, complete with music, food, and drinks.

“At the core, we wanted to give people more access to African culture. There’s a heightened awareness of the cultures of the continent, but food and fashion are often forgotten, and not every community or country gets represented, though they all have so much to offer. We want to do more to represent African fashion and design from across a broad spectrum of stylists and designers from the continent, and to bring together creators from as many countries as possible.”

These creators are coming to cities around the country this summer, creating a day-long hub for African, African-American, and Afrophilic fashion lovers and hosting local performers and favorite eats at every stop.
