What we’re about
Welcome to ATX Young African Professionals! A community dedicated to building a stronger network of young professional Africans and people of African descent in Austin. We come together to connect, share our successes, and celebrate our vibrant cultures. We also welcome friends and anyone with an interest in African heritage and culture.
This group is about bringing together a diverse community of people who value fun, exploration, and meaningful connections. Whether you’re looking to expand your network, make new friends, try new foods, or experience cultural events, this is the group for you!
If you have an event idea, contact me and we can bring it to life.
