AfroQuiz 2025

What is Afroquiz?

For the past 31 years, AfroQuiz has been a part of the fabric of Black History Month in Edmonton. AfroQuiz has given youth in the city aspirational figures in Black history to look up to and feel proud of their heritage. Each year we strive to educate as many students as possible about the many wonderful contributions of people of African and Caribbean heritage to the world.

AfroQuiz serves the youth of diverse cultural backgrounds in Edmonton and the greater community. Every year, AfroQuiz welcomes contestants from Grades 1-12 and adult participation is welcome as well.

As with Jeopardy, participants are given study material to review before the event and an opportunity to study with a group of students in AfroCademy.

AfroQuiz will be held on:

Date: Feb 22, 2025

Venue: Stanley A. Milner Library: 7 Sir Winston Churchill Square, Edmonton, AB T5J 2V4 (Muttart theatre)

What is AfroCademy?

AfroCademy is a cohort learning experience that teaches valuable study skills in preparation for AfroQuiz.

AfroCademy will offer in-person sessions that incorporate, study skills, test prep, music, movement, and food for a truly fun immersive learning experience. The aim is to teach study skills and have the youth learn together as a cohort. They will meet the other students in their Kingdom and make friends as they learn truly amazing content. Students earn points by studying weekly and submitting simple AfroWow videos about something they learned that week that was intriguing to them. These points will help us determine the winning Kingdom for the group prizes, and will add to individual points.

AfroCademy will be held on only 3 weekends:

Date: February 2nd, 9th, and 16th 2025

Time: 1: 00 pm -3:30 pm
