The
ICSN Iri Ji (New Yam) Festival 2013 & 15 Year Anniversary
Celebration ICSN(Igbo Cultural Support Network) is the UK’s largest
networking organisation for young adults of Nigerian Igbo descent.
London's Igbo community celebrated this
year's new yam festival or Iri Ji which was organised by ICSN at the
Petchey Academy in East London.
The festival marks the end of the work
cycle when Igbos celebrate good yields and pray for another good
planting season for the year ahead.
This year’s Iri Ji Festival was not
just solely about honouring Igbo culture, and continuing the legacy of
the New Yam festival, but also about paying homage, and respecting the
lineage of their unique organisation ICSN, hence this year’s titled "
ICSN Iri Ji (New Yam) Festival 2013 & 15 Year Anniversary
Celebration.
