A little bit of what Abantu Kultuur looks like in motion. 🌍

Culture, creativity, learning, conversations, movement and community.

Different people. Different stories. Shared spaces.
Building bridges between African and Estonian creative communities, one project at a time. ❤️

🇪🇪 Aafrika hääled Tallinnas 2026 🌍

Suur aitäh kõigile, kes tulid meiega jagama päeva täis liikumist, rütmi, kultuuri, toitu, loomingut ja vestlusi.

Päeva jooksul toimusid traditsioonilised Benini tantsud, kaasaegse Afro tantsu töötuba, löökpillide töötuba, Aafrika näomaalingute esitlus, esinemised ning paneeldiskussioon “African Voices in Tallinn”, kus rääkisime kuuluvusest, identiteedist, esindatusest ja Aafrika kogukondade rollist Tallinna kultuuri- ja ühiskonnaelus.

Eriline tänu kõigile esinejatele, panelistidele, ettevõtjatele, partneritele ja vabatahtlikele, kes aitasid selle päeva teoks teha. ❤️

See sündmus oli osa Tallinna Rahvuskultuuride päevad 2026 programmist ja toimus Tallinna linna toetusel.

🇬🇧 African Voices in Tallinn 2026 🌍

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for a day full of movement, rhythm, culture, food, creativity and conversation.

Throughout the day, we shared traditional Beninese dance, a modern Afro dance workshop, percussion, African face painting, performances and the “African Voices in Tallinn” panel discussion, where we explored belonging, identity, representation and the role of African communities in Tallinn’s cultural and social life.

A special thank you to all the performers, panelists, entrepreneurs, partners and volunteers who helped bring the day to life. ❤️

Crossed a river blindfolded, guided by a new friend I was learning to trust. Danced without thinking. Sat in circles and actually listened.

Brought a piece of home to Lithuania and left with pieces of 30+ others.

10 days with young people from across Europe, exploring what it means to connect with others and with yourself. The Algorithm of Love reminded me that vulnerability is a skill worth practicing.

🇪🇺 LEVEL UP ENGAGEMENT | Erasmus+ in Croatia

Earlier this year, participants representing Abantu Kultuur joined Level Up Engagement, an Erasmus+ learning experience in Šibenik, Croatia. 🇭🇷

From 23–29 March 2026, participants came together in an international environment to learn, exchange experiences and explore new approaches to youth engagement. 🌍

Projects like this are an important part of what we want to build through Abantu Kultuur: creating opportunities for people in Estonia to connect internationally, develop new skills and bring those experiences back into their communities.

A big thank you to Mladi u EU and all the partners and participants who made the experience possible.

🌍 Maailm meie hoovis | The World in Our Backyard

🇪🇪

21.juunil kogunesid naabrid, sõbrad ja kogukonnad Kungla 29 hoovi, et jagada oma kodumaa maitseid, lippe, lugusid ja traditsioone.

Maailm tuli meie hoovi ning tuletas meelde, et kultuur ei ole ainult midagi, mida vaadata lavalt. Kultuur sünnib siis, kui inimesed kohtuvad, räägivad, maitsevad, õpivad ja loovad koos.

Aitäh kõigile, kes tõid killukese oma kodumaast meie ühisele lauale ning aitasid luua sooja ja avatud õhkkonna, kus erinevad kultuurid said kohtuda naabrite, sõprade ja uute tuttavatega. 💙

🇬🇧

On 21 June, neighbours, friends and community members gathered in the backyard of Kungla 29 to share the flavours, flags, stories and traditions of their home countries.

The world came into our backyard and reminded us that culture is not only something we watch from a stage. Culture comes alive when people meet, talk, taste, learn and create together.

Thank you to everyone who brought a piece of their culture to our shared table and helped create a warm and welcoming space where different cultures could meet neighbours, friends and new connections. 💙

"Maailm meie hoovis" is part of the project "Tallinna naabruskondade kultuuriõhtud".

From myths carved in wood to stories brought to life on stage! 🎭✨

“Myths of Us” gathered 30 young people from 5 EU countries (Lithuania, Estonia, Spain, Greece, and Italy) for an incredible Erasmus+ journey into storytelling, identity, and connection in Kaunas, Lithuania.

🌍During the project, we didn’t just learn about heroes from different cultures—we became them! Through interactive workshops, theatre improvisation, and digital storytelling, participants explored how myths mirror real-life struggles, empathy, and transformation.
Now, we are thrilled to share the amazing results of this journey with you!
💡 You can find our final outcomes, including: 📰 The Full Project Press Release 🎬 The Project Video Summary 📚 The Resource Platform (tools, methodologies & videos)
🔗 Check out our The Myths of Us Highlight to access all the links and materials!

A huge thank you to all partners and participants for making this a reality. Stories shape who we are—and by sharing them, we discover we are not so different after all. ❤️
