In partnership with Black Brighton Market, the Pan-African Creative Exchange (PACE) brings you a vibrant market place featuring arts & craft stalls, pop up performances, a cultural cafe and a drop in advice salon for the local creative community.

PLUS A VERY SPECIAL PERFORMANCE AT 3.30pm WITH GUEST VOCALIST KYMARA

Kymara will take you on a journey through her life. Her music is a combination of Nina Simone’s s storytelling songs, D’Angelo’s soulfulness and the purity and rawness of Janis Joplin....not to be missed!


Way beyond being just a series of amazing exhibitions, talks, masterclasses, screenings, performances and networking events, the PACE programme for the Culture ConneX Festival Season is a place to share ideas and best practice, to build partnerships and to foster collaboration. It offers a unique space to make new connections and to renew old ones, with Ironworks Studios playing host to a very special creative hub. Look out for a range of pop up activities around the main programme including the PACE Late Lounge, and be sure to make the most out of this groundbreaking initiative to widen participation and create new pathways for more diverse communities to be a part of the city’s mainstream arts arena.
