Kick-Off Black History Month Tomorrow with F2FA Magazine in Los Angeles

Face2face Africa, in collaboration with Miss Dunnie O, will be hosting an intimate release celebration for their contemporary pan-African magazine in Hollywood, Los Angeles on February 1, 2013.

F2FA Magazine has been featured on mainstream media such as Black Enterprise, The Grio, Newsone, Ebony, BET, Madame Noire and more. It has been dubbed the modern day “Vanity Fair” of African affairs and has been tagged a publication that can help mend race relation.

Join the pan African community and friends of Africa in Los Angeles  for a great night of celebration and networking. The young and innovative Editor-in-chief Sandra Appiah will also share the inspiration for F2FA and her vision for the publication.

Special guests include maiden issue cover models/brothers Kwame Boateng, Kofi Siriboe, and Kwesi Boakye, Miss Nigeria America, actor Bambadjan Bamba, and more.

As a big supporter of Africa based non-profit organizations, Face2face Africa will be donating a portion of the proceeds from the event to Infanta Malaria Prevention Foundation in Ghana.

Guests will have the opportunity to enter into a raffle to win two (2) roundtrip tickets to West Africa by courtesy of event sponsor, Arik Airlines. Other sponsors include Otobia collectibles, MakeUp-Squared, and Sumahrie Collections.

As space is limited, only RSVP guests will be guaranteed entry.
