Presented by Friends of the Congo, Maysles Documentary Center & True Walker Productions, Congo In Harlem Film and Event Series will be from October 17th-24th, 2021, online and in-person.

Congo in Harlem is an annual showcase of film, art, discussions and special events focused on the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and is the flagship event of CONGO WEEK.

Each year we present a diverse program that aims to deepen our community's understanding of Congo, but most importantly we want people to have fun! Congo in Harlem is more than just movies and discussions -- it's an opportunity to discover Congo's culture, learn about its history, and engage around its challenges.

Congo in Harlem is free and open to the public. Our 13th annual program will be presented online from October 17th - 24th. In addition to the virtual program, there will be in-person events at Maysles Documentary Center on Saturday, October 23rd and Sunday, October 24. Check our website for the latest schedule, as we often add last-minute events.
