This is still your weekly gathering space for artists, dreamers, and culture lovers to meet, exchange ideas, and relax — but this week, we’re adding a dash of the supernatural to our living-room-style comfort.
Bring your best costume (or just come as you are (masks will be available for sale at a giveaway price) and mingle with Nairobi’s creative souls.
Whether you’re here to create, connect, or simply catch your breath with a cold drink, Sebuleni offers a unique space to unwind, be inspired, and see where the night takes you.
