Day of the African Child

Join the World Forestry Center and Harambee Centre as they celebrate Day of the African Child, a unique day where people from all cultures and backgrounds can come together to celebrate diversity. The World Forestry Center's Central Plaza will be transformed into a colorful African Market and the Discovery Museum will have crafts, activities, and events.

Admission of $5.00 per person (children under 3 are free) gives visitors the opportunity to enjoy shopping at the African Market as well as explore the World Forestry Center Discovery Museum. Visitors can shop for one-of-a kind trinkets and traditional African dress, listen to upbeat and fun music, and taste exotic flavors from traditional African food vendors.

Crafts for children and demonstrations for adults include mask making, head wrapping, and henna painting. This event is great for people of all ages who want to embrace diversity and experience daily life in another part of the world.

The World Forestry Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit educational organization. Their mission is to teach about forests of the world and environmental stewardship.
The Harambee Centre is also a nonprofit whose mission is to connect the people of the Pacific Northwest with the people and cultures of Africa. "Harambee" means "let's pull together" in Kiswahili.

The World Forestry Center campus is five minutes from downtown Portland, just off Highway 26 in Portland's Washington Park. There is a $2 Metro parking fee which is waived if visitors take bus or MAX light rail line. WFC visitors are encouraged to ride MAX to the Washington Park tunnel.
