Fèt Gede Events!

Sunday, November 7

4pm to 6:30pm

The Fèt Gede celebrations continue at the Cumbe: Center for African and Diaspora Dance!

Monvelyno & Riva Nyri Precil (Gede Wedding) invite you to celebrate Gede season, which spans from the end of October through mid November in Haiti, and can be compared to Mexico's Day of the Dead or the Western tradition of Halloween.

Come celebrate life, fertility, and death with Haiti's raucous Gede spirits through song, dance, and drums.

*Invitees are encouraged to wear black, white, purple, or silver outfits and have props like a cane, dark glasses, and tall black top hat!
