The Sand Art of Île de Gorée: A Curated Evening of Art, Culture & Connection at The Village Creative

Nairobi, Kenya – July 9, 2025 — This Saturday, 12th July 2025, from 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM, an extraordinary evening awaits at The Village Creative, Lavington. Ukombozi Social, in collaboration with The Village Creative Ltd, invites you to the unveiling of Ukombozi, Nairobi’s first social club for liberated minds. The occasion, themed “The Sand Art of Île de Gorée,” will be a one-of-a-kind immersive experience at the intersection of heritage, artistry, and contemporary African expression.

Drawing inspiration from the evocative sand art traditions of Gorée Island, Senegal, this event promises to fuse Sahelian textures with Sub-Saharan warmth in an evening designed to stir the senses and spark meaningful dialogue among tastemakers, visionaries, and cultural architects.

This event marks the official launch of Ukombozi, an innovative social concept that reimagines what it means to gather, think, and create in Nairobi. Spaces are extremely limited, and entry is by ticket reservation only—no walk-ins permitted.
