Kena Bwembya and her husband Charles are excited to launch Bwembya’s Market in the Quincy Square, where they will showcase a variety of items imported from Zambia, such as jewelry and kitchenware. However, their main focus is on supporting local artists and displaying authentic Zambian crafts.
The couple hopes to create a hands-on experience of African culture, allowing neighbors to see and feel the beauty of Zambia right in their own community. By bridging the gap between different cultures and creating a sense of connection, they aim to serve as a platform for sharing and preserving Africa’s rich cultural heritage while also supporting local businesses.
According to Surface, a significant portion of Africa’s cultural heritage is held outside the continent. Bwembya’s Market will provide an opportunity for people to explore this unique business endeavor while also learning more about Zambian culture and art. The grand opening on April 11th promises to be a cultural celebration that brings together the community and highlights the beauty and diversity of Zambia.
