The Africa Fashion Salon series is part of the Young People’s Programme for 16–26-year-olds to engage in topical discussion relating to the Africa Fashion exhibition. Every third Friday of the month between October- February (the salon series will not take place in December) a salon will take place at the museum, that will explore the themes and approaches within the exhibition content.

Africa Fashion Salons are hosted by poet and writer Yomi Sode.
