The air was thick with the scent of burning Uunsi and Bakhour, and the room hummed with a mix of Somali and Arabic dialects. This wasn't just another event; it was a homecoming.
MOQA Presents: A Celebration of Somali & Yemeni Heritage recently wrapped up, and to say it was a success would be an understatement. It was a vibrant, living bridge between the Horn of Africa and the Southern Arabian Peninsula, proving that heritage is best preserved when it is shared.
Fashion was the soul of the event, the food was the heart. Guests were treated to a culinary map of the region.
The event may have ended, but the sounds is still on repeat in our heads. We want to thank every guests and performer who reminded us that our heritage is a living, breathing masterpiece.
