THE WALK OF HOPE
African Heritage Switzerland has had the pleasure of hosting the much awaited African Fashion Festival on September 4th, 2021.
After hosting two successful events in 2018 and 2019, we look forward to hosting yet another elegant night of fashion at Sektor 11, Zurich.
The theme for the night is ‘Walk of Hope’. Although 2020 was a year of adversity and change, we got through it, with hope for a better future.
In 2021, with the onset of global access to COVID vaccination, we can see light at the end of the tunnel. Our elegant event will seek to promote hope and unity among all people, the world over. We will also be celebrating the rich diversity of African fashion and culture through an enthralling fashion show. We hope to see you there!
