Irish artist Rosetta Jallow is organizing this exhibition to raise money to support African causes:
- Operation Bobbi Bear, based in South Africa, who rescue children from rape and sexual abuse. They provide a place of safety for the children and educate that child rape does not cure AIDS
-Maybe others
Art and craft exhibition will be just one of the actions to take place at Carrickfergus. African Art workshops will be held too, African drummers, storytellers, music, a football tournament to raise money to provide kits for African youths who want to form teams, free tasters of African food and lots more.
