We invite you to Food-and-Fireplace – an event where African diaspora community members share recipes and showcase different African cuisines. Participants can partake in the cook-off, involving samples and prizes for winning dishes. The event also has an open-mic element, where artists, musicians, and storytellers are encouraged to perform and share heritage stories about their background and experiences.

Location: Red Room Pavilion Space at the David Livingstone Centre, 165 Station Road, Blantyre G72 9BY
