World Nomads, FIAF’s annual exploration of transculturalism in the 21st century, returns in May with a focus on Haiti—a country brimming with a rich and vibrant cultural life that is both fiercely original and stunningly universal. View Event List (below).

FIAF has partnered with downtown music pioneer S.O.B.’S, the PEN World Voices Festival of International Literature, Haiti’s Ciné Institute, and New York’s revolutionary film center The Maysles Institute for the second edition of the series, in order to bring some of the most exciting examples of Haitian culture to New York.

Spanning all of FIAF, from Le Skyroom to Florence Gould Hall, and stretching between the Maysles Institute in Harlem to S.O.B.’S and The Bubble Lounge downtown, World Nomads Haiti celebrates the inspiring cultural landscape of Haiti—a closely knit community that remains full of hope and promise for the future.

World Nomads is generously supported by American Airlines, the official airline of FIAF; Afrique & Caraïbes en créations–CulturesFrance; and Organisation internationale de la francophonie.
