In 2013, Fely Tchaco created and launched the first fundraising event MODEFA at MOAD (Museum of the African Diaspora) with the goal of bringing the African Arts Academy's activities to a larger portion of the San Francisco community. The AAA wants to share African arts with San Franciscans and is working on an after-school program to keep kids off the streets and reduce gun violence. Children and families in African American communities, as well as the African diaspora, will benefit the most.
"It is vital to me to share the beauty of Africa with our community, Art's healing abilities saved my life." " said MODEFA Executive Producer and African Arts Academy founder Fely Tchaco, who will reveal her untold childhood story and the reason she founded the institution for the first time. "African art and dance have influenced so much of the world, but there are many misconceptions about the contributions of African art to the world. "The objective of the African Arts Academy is to establish a state-of-the-art institution that specializes in the study of African and African diaspora arts and crafts in order to preserve African cultural heritage via modern technologies for future generations, where innovation and tradition coexist.
