YOKOHAMA — With the Tokyo International Conference on African Development to be held in Yokohama later this month, a two-day cultural event kicked off Saturday to bring a taste of Africa to Japan's famous harbor city.
The annual African Festa is normally held at Hibiya Park in Tokyo's Chiyoda Ward to introduce Africa to the public.
This year, however, the festival is being held at the Red Brick Warehouse in Yokohama and features a number of TICAD-related events, including talk shows featuring Japanese artists and celebrities.
