Our Roots

Creating space for culture, connection and community

Collective Roots CIC is an African cultural hub based in Canterbury, Kent, created to celebrate African culture and build meaningful connections within the local community.

We believe culture brings people together. Our work creates opportunities for people of African heritage to learn, connect and celebrate their roots — while inviting the wider community to discover, experience and engage with the many cultures, traditions and contemporary expressions of Africa.

Through cultural events, workshops, performances, community gatherings and creative projects, we bring African heritage and contemporary African culture into shared spaces where everyone is welcome

Join Us in Celebrating African Heritage

Whether honoring your roots or discovering African traditions for the first time, our doors in Canterbury are wide open.
