Immerse yourself in West African culture through drumming, vibrant costumes, and more. “Experience the Beat of Africa” is a community festival co-hosted by Glenfield Library and Kra KoTo Kra, a West African-style drumming ensemble.
The event features a performance, as well as drumming and dancing tutorials/workshops by Kra KoTo Kra.
Experience the powerful rhythms of West African-style drum and dance and learn about the symbolic and historical significance of Africa. Most importantly, practise the African drumming principle of “everyone gathering together in peace.”
An exhibition of traditional costumes and instruments will be held at the library from 23rd to 28th March.
We invite you to join us for this free event and celebrate the beauty of African culture.
