At Africa Cultural Promotion Center (ACPC), the cultural identity and values of African people are celebrated and promoted. The ACPC strives to create a vibrant African community: a home away from home where you can connect with people of African descent living in the Netherlands. ACPC achieves this by making a variety of tailored culturally oriented products and services available in a safe space where everyone can thrive. ACPC is passionate about African culture and brings it closer to you. The ACPC believes that living far from home should not lead us to leave our culture behind.
