We just signed a collaboration with the Kulttuurikameleontit ry.
This year we will produce together three events focused on African Folk, partly supported by Alli Paasikiven Säätiö.
The first of these will be at the World Village Festival: Africa goes South America on May 27th – 12:45 and 19:00 – at the World Village Festival, Kids’ Corner.
We invite you and your family to discover through dancing, drumming, and singing the connection between traditional African and Salsa rhythms. Expert musicians will be leading two workshops hosted by the warm and multicultural atmosphere of the World Village Festival.
The workshops are designed for families and will be a fun and interesting experience you will remember with joy. There will be drums available for you and your kids and you are of course welcome to bring yours.
