Kafe Kiskeya: Pre-Grand Opening Success!

THE DREAM

KAFE KISKEYA creates a comfortable space for folks from various parts of the city to meet in & share time together. ~ KISKEYA is the Taino Indian word for Mother of the Earth & is what the Island of Hispaniola, including Haiti & Dominican Republic, was called before Columbus arrived over 500 years ago, a time when all of the inhabitants lived in harmony. ~ THE DREAM is for all of humanity to once again live together peacefully on this Earth. By spending time together, we can make that dream a reality!

Pre-Grand Opening Success!

This week has been full with several activities at Kafe Kiskeya, including An Evening with Djaloki (http://djaloki.blog.com/) on Monday night where 18 folks learned about Memory Village (http://www.memoryvillage.blogspot.com/), a project in Haiti, and a play which supports it, 3 Innocents and a Spirit (http://www.3innocents.blogspot.com/).

Transformational Journeys (http://www.tjourneys.com/) held their monthly meeting on Tuesday evening at the Kafe.

And last night 14 people participated in a UMKC Communiversity course (http://www.umkc.edu/commu/) with Djaloki called Ancient Selves, New Consciousness. We also enjoyed live Haitian music from a local group called Kompa Unlimited!

Kompa Unlimited will perform again next week for Kafe Kiskeya's Grand Opening on June 1st from 8 to 10pm. Look forward to seeing you then! Bring friends. Dance. Drink coffee. Enjoy! :)
