My Story

MY STORY
My first event was June 2019 with 28 people in attendance. The Blaxicana Fest community has now grown to me hosting at Pershing Square with a total of 1,000.
​
After many events both large and small, I decided the very best vibes come from smaller events of 200-300 guests where everyone can have the opportunity to mix and mingle in a safe, upscale, and creative space.
​
MY VISION
Blaxicana Fest is an upscale, fashion, music festival which was created out of my desire to provide a platform for creative artists to showcase their talent as well as to host my sister brand, Blaxicana Couture in a runway fashion show experience with my one of a kind custom designs.
Inspired by my family, BLAXICANA FEST reflects the blending of cultures and embraces global diversity.
​
My goal is to provide a safe, creative space for all and to promote entrepreneurship within the BIPOC community.​
