Fèt Gede: A Celebration of Our Ancestors

  • Now & Then NYC 290 Meserole Street Brooklyn, NY, 11206 United States (map)

As CCCADI’s yearlong homage to the legacy of Haiti, Lakay se Lakay, comes to a close, we invite our community to culminate this series by honoring those who paved the way for us, our ancestors. 

The month of November serves as a time for us to celebrate the lives and spirits of our loved ones who have passed on. In Haitian Vodou traditions, it is the month for Gede season through which we honor the spiritual relationship and connection between the living and the dead, similar to the Latin American traditions of Día de los Muertos. 

Gede season serves as a perfect time to bring together our Diasporic community to pay tribute to the freedom fighters who served as the catalyst for Black liberation around the world and the lwas that protect and guide us. 

Join us as we partner with artist and cultural innovator, Riva Nyri Précil, who has been hosting Fèt Gede for nearly a decade, to offer an evening of cultural preservation and artistic expression rooted in African and Indigenous spirituality.
