Detant Kreyòl is a space where participants can relax, enjoy themselves, and celebrate Haitian culture through music, games, art, and food - bringing together flavors, sounds, and traditions that feel like home.

These gatherings also provide an opportunity to share helpful information and city resources with older adults in a warm and culturally affirming environment.

The first edition of Detant Kreyòl - closing out Haitian Heritage Month with joy and celebration, will take place on Friday May 29, 2026, from 11am to 1pm at 20 Stephenson Aman Street, Somerville MA 02144.

HC

Detant Kreyòl se yon espas kote patisipan yo ka detann, pran plezi yo, epi selebre kilti Ayisyen an atravè mizik, jwèt, atizay, ak manje, ki reyini gou, son, ak tradisyon ki fè moun santi yo lakay yo.

Rasanbleman sa yo ofri tou yon opòtinite pou pataje enfòmasyon itil ak resous vil la ak granmoun aje yo nan yon anviwònman cho ak kiltirèlman pozitif.

Premye edisyon Detant Kreyòl - k ap fèmen Mwa Eritaj Ayisyen an ak lajwa ak selebrasyon, ap dewoule vandredi 29 me 2026, ant 11 am jiska 1 pm nan 20 Stephenson Aman Street, Somerville MA 02144.
