Free registrations for the “Eu Tenho a Beleza Negra” runway show will close soon. The event is part of the Negritude in Motion Festival in the Federal District.
The Federal District is preparing to celebrate Afro-Brazilian representation and aesthetics with the highly anticipated runway show Eu Tenho a Beleza Negra. The initiative, which is part of the official program of the 2nd Negritude in Motion Festival, is nearing the end of its free registration period, which will close next Tuesday, November 10.
Funded by resources from the Cultural Support Fund through Secec-DF, the project aims to fill public spaces with art and identity affirmation. The main runway will be set up at the headquarters of the Regional Administration of Sobradinho II, promising to energize the cultural scene of the administrative region.
Diversity and Inclusion on the Runway
The organizers plan to select a group of 20 people for the show, embracing all age groups. Children, young people, adults, and seniors over 65, as well as people with disabilities, will have guaranteed space to express their roots and styles on the runway set for November 21.
To ensure that all selected participants have a complete experience, the production will provide full beautification support, including professional makeup and hairstyling services tailored to highlight the natural hair texture and the diverse skin tones of the local Black community.
We want every person who steps onto this runway to feel beautiful, respected, and proud of their identity.
Program and Next Steps
Hosted by Negrajus Produções & Eventos in partnership with collectives such as Grupo Cultural Azulim, Feira D’Elas, and the Unificado Negro Movement, the festival goes far beyond fashion. Attendees on November 21, starting at 6:30 p.m., can enjoy free performances of samba, capoeira, breaking, dance, and artistic exhibitions.
Those interested in participating in the selection must fill out the digital form available on the event’s official channels by the deadline. The announcement of the chosen names by the curators is scheduled for November 15, crowning the celebrations of Black Consciousness Month in the country’s capital with a strong social and cultural appeal.
