UJAAMAA MARKETPLACE

We invite you to the Ujamaa Marketplace this Kwanzaa season. Attendees can enjoy shopping with local entrepreneurs, live poetry, giveaways, a children’s activity corner, and more!

The Ujamaa Marketplace is the newest addition to Milwaukee’s continued tradition of citywide Kwanzaa celebrations. Ujamaa is the fourth principle of Kwanzaa, and it translates to “Cooperative Economics”.

This event was curated with community in mind — a way for people of all ages to learn about the importance of this beautiful week-long celebration of African American culture and history.

Kwanzaa begins December 26th and ends January 1st, 2025. Throughout the city, you will find celebrations for each principle day. You can swipe to view the citywide Kwanzaa schedule. We hope to see you there!
