Cultural Assets of Nova Scotia - African Nova Scotian Tourism Guide
Come visit the birthplace of Canda's Black community. Our presence in this province traces back to the 1600s, and we were recorded as being present in the provincial captial during its founding in 1749. Today, some 300 years later, there are festivals and gatherings throughout the year that acknowledge and celebrate the vibrant, rich African Nova Scotian culture.
We will always be here, remembering and honouring the past, living in the present, and looking towards the future.
