United Spirit: FILLING PIECES x KLABU

1 July 2023 marked the 150th annual celebration of Keti Koti. To celebrate this milestone we have formed a partnership with Amsterdam fashion brand Filling Pieces. Together, we have embarked on a journey to build a Clubhouse in Suriname where local culture and education can flourish.

Meaning ‘broken chains’ in Sranantongo, Keti Koti commemorates the 1863 abolition of slavery in Suriname and the Dutch Antilles, celebrating the people who fought for abolition, and the rich cultures that have persevered and flourished.

The united vision of KLABU’s Unbeatable Spirit and FP’s Unity for Suriname sparked a partnership driven by United Spirit, aiming to tackle issues of the past which persist in communities today.
