The African Students Association is hosting an African Descent Evening on Friday, October 13 from 6–9 p.m in the Saywell Atrium on Burnaby Campus. The event is centred around the celebration of various African cultures, and everyone is welcome. It will include music, dance, and food.

While the event is free, it is filling up fast so if you plan to attend make sure to RSVP here.
