Victoria based film and dance artist Kemi Craig is the guest curator for AGGV’s programming series Blueprints for the Afrofuture. In anticipation of upcoming events Kemi shares with us her vision for this series and her experience since kicking things off with DJ Nova Jade’s Juneteenth Listening Party and Joshua Ngenda’s Instagram takeover.
