About the event

Back for the sixth year, PVD World Music’s Annual African Film and Arts Festival 2025 returns to Providence from September 17 to 21, 2025, with a five-day celebration spotlighting the brilliance of women filmmakers from Africa and the African diaspora.

As with every year, the festival will showcase rarely-seen films, conversations with pioneering contemporary filmmakers, live music performances and host community gatherings in locations around Providence in partnership with local champion organizations.

The African Film and Art Festival seeks to celebrate, educate and promote cross-cultural dialogue and understanding between the diverse communities that call Providence home. We hope you can join us to celebrate, promote, and enrich traditional music, arts and films from Africa and around the world so that they may be enjoyed and cherished for generations to come!

Tickets are free: Donations are highly encouraged.
