Society HAE puts forth initiatives that provide a platform for
emerging artists, while at the same time creating opportunities for
the community at large to have access to and experience art of
various mediums. Two such initiatives are Afrika21 and Tour de PoP
(TdP).
Our mantra is... Change The World, Create Something and we
hope to encourage our members, site visitors and others to do just
that.
AFRIKA21
Coverage of Africa’s fundamental weaknesses, - civil war, poverty,
and helplessness, has overshadowed the well of talent rapidly
emerging from the African Diaspora. With Afrika21, Society HAE will create a massive platform to
introduce 21 of Africa's emerging young creatives in the fields of
art, music, fashion and film. The Afrika21
project will give audiences a first hand look at 21st century
contemporary African culture, and open up a new dialogue about
Africa as a go to market place for creative synergy.
The first by product of this project is theAFRIKA21 MIXTAPE, this monthly
mixtape will feature 21 songs highlighting the work of Africa's
young musicians who are re-defining African music and the continent
in general. Listen to the mixtape here: http://www.societyhae.com/page/afrika21-mixtape
