In Africa there is a concept known as ubuntu: the profound sense that we are human only through the humanity of others; that if we are to accomplish anything in this world, it will in equal measure be due to the work and achievements of others.

In addition to the street level celebration, each year WestFest hosts an outdoor main stage and feature some of the best acts our country has to offer. Established in 2004, Westfest is a fusion of community and art, and places a special emphasis on diversity, children, and all families.
