    About the festival

    We Are One (WAO) Music/Culture Festival brings together the oldest Latino- and African-centered cultural festivals in New Hampshire into one event. Latinos Unidos established the Latino Festival in 2000 and Ujima Collective founded the African/Caribbean Celebration in 2001 to address issues of social isolation and cultural alienation. We combine our efforts to celebrate our unique ancestry, common cultural heritage, and our shared interests because we are “Better Together.”
