The Youth Council was launched on February 18th 2023 in commemoration of The Gambia’s 58th Independence Anniversary.  The day was marked by a Gambian cultural display of fashion wear, food and music.  The attendants at the event included Gambian community members including children and invitees from the West African community in Minnesota.  The Youth Council was introduced at the event and kids learned about The Gambia and its culture through video production.
