This program is created with love and respect for Guinean culture and art, offering support and value to sustain the culture of dance and traditional music of Guinea!
Thanks to all our masters, teachers, and friends we learned from.
This project is comprised of 2 parts,
-
Workshops: we move through the history, context, music, dance and culture from various ethnic groups within the Manding regions of West Africa.
-
Performance: All workshop participants will together perform a piece of small-scale artwork at the end of the workshop.
