NBO LitFest: Mtaa Narratives

NBO LitFest is a literary festival birthed in 2021 to celebrate art, culture, and boundless knowledge that exists within Nairobi’s diverse neighbourhoods. This year’s edition, themed “Mtaa Narratives”, aims to explore and celebrate memories and stories that ground the Nairobians. It is purposed at unraveling the untold stories and ideas, through its vibrant public libraries, that shape Nairobi and its environs.

The 3-day event that takes place from 25th August to 27th August will be held across the three Book Bunk’s project libraries, namely; McMillan Memorial Library, Kaloleni Library, and Eastands Library. Note: Each of these libraries originally belonged to the colonialists who designed and established them to serve their then communities.
