Join us as we celebrate Umoja. To strive for and maintain unity in the family, community, nation, and race. Kwanzaa Candles will be lit at 1pm.
Umoja means UNITY.
It's a day jam-packed with laughter and friendly competition.
Family Game Day will include board games and movies for families to unite with the community to create lasting memories.
Umoja is the first principle of Kwanzaa, a community holiday that takes place on December 26th. The Swahili word Umoja means "unity" and emphasizes the importance of togetherness in the family, community, nation, and race. It has roots in African collectivism, which encourages people to work together toward common goals.

The West Las Vegas Library opened to the Historic Westside Neighborhood on D Street in 1973 before moving to its current location on Lake Mead Boulevard in January 1989. In addition to offering a 298-seat theater, the African American Special Collection, and a state-of-the-art robot lab, this 38,900-square-foot library houses 27,700 volumes and has become a prominent part of the community.
