Celebrate African and African American Art: Nigeria
June 8 @ 11:30 am - 3:00 pm
Be in our audience for excerpts from The Talking Drum. The drum is a legendary communications tool — a punctuating teller of life as it happens. This lively delivery of African and African American folktales and narratives combine with vocal and instrumental music to engage audiences along a rhythmic journey over continents and through time.
The Talking Drum has been called:
“Absolutely fantastic!”
Enjoy all! Then, join us next door at the Virginia Museum of History & Culture as Juneteenth 2024, A Freedom Celebration featuring the Black Book Expo continues with independent authors, live performances, a vast display of books plus snacks and drinks, 2p – 7p. Serendipity!
