Introduction
The purpose of this holiday is in line with the principles and the traditions of Creativity. Decades ago, our founder Ben Klassen gave the White Race its own racial religion for the first time in its history. Likewise, Festum Album will add to our creative traditions, providing the White Race its own pan-European ethnocentric festival. In our glorious future to come, we envision Festum Album being celebrated by White families throughout the entire world. It will someday become a world celebration in a White World. Though we as Creators strive to promote the interests of the White Race on a daily basis, it is only fitting that we set aside one week at the year’s end to festively celebrate our Racial Pride and Unity with family and friends.
