Community Events | Malelani Cafe - Music, Art & More in Mt. Airy

Our collaboration with employees and patrons has been instrumental in growing Malelani from a simple restaurant into a cultural touchstone. At nighttime, the café doors open up, and we support community-building programs. Malelani provides a safe, stable place for people to just be themselves. We nourish people's souls through the visual arts, music, dance, political activism, poetry, comedy, small business, social events, and personal development. All interested in booking a performance should come to our regular Thursday Open Mic or email us at Malelani.mtairybooking@gmail.com
