The first ever Lamu Arts Festival will be happening on the island this coming Valentine’s Day weekend, starting from Thursday through Sunday February 15.

Such a festival was practically a foregone conclusion following the inception of the Lamu Painters Festival several years ago and then shortly thereafter, the Lamu Hat Contest, both of which were launched by the retired German restauranteur Herbert Menzer.
