In Africa, the Market is a central gathering place where people (young and matured) go to purchase, trade or barter for goods and services. The Market is a lively gathering place full of activity. Samaiyah's African Marketplace is the designated "After The March" venue to connect, unwind, patronize exhibitors, exchange information and enjoy live entertainment! We'll have vendors with unique Cultural Items ~ Commemorative March Memorabilia ~ African Art & Jewelry ~ Authors & Book Signing ~ African Drummers ~ Spoken Word ~ and a 1-Hour Dance Party!
