About One Source Live

One Source Live is an event that celebrates African Creativity by bringing together a host of African artists, musicians, fashion designers and photographers to collaborate. Led by Absolut Ambassador and Creative revolutionary Khuli Chana, these artists are coming together to tell a new, uplifting, and positive story about Africa as the creative engine of the world. One source Live is inspired by ABSOLUT Vodka’s one source philosophy. Unlike most other vodkas, Absolut is entirely produced from one source in Ahus, Sweden. Hence, OSL aims to remind people that we all come from one source, Africa; the one source of humanity and the source of creativity.

Along with an exciting line-up of Artists, the ONE SOURCE LIVE creative revolutionaries Khuli Chana, Sho Madjozi, Trevor Stuurman and Osborne Macharia will return to the festival in November 2018 with new installations and musical collaborations.The African Creative Revolution continues, join and celebrate the power of African creativity at ONE SOURCE LIVE
