African Ceremonies is a 501C3 charitable foundation dedicated to the recording and preserving of Africa's cultural traditions, ceremonies, customs and art forms. Established by Carol Beckwith and Angela Fisher in 2004, it seeks to preserve the strength, essence and creativity of African cultures for the history of mankind and for the education of future generations.The foundation also carries out projects in traditional societies to reciprocate the support it has received from those communities.

"Carol Beckwith and Angela Fisher are not only truly remarkable photographers, but their dedication to preserving for all time the dazzling diversity of African ceremonies is unparalleled. Their celebration of African cultures will forever serve as the most compelling and passionate portrayal of the splendour of human creativity from the very continent that gave rise to all humanity."
