Program Description
Details
Join us for an African adventure rooted in the history, culture, and traditions of Africa!
Orisirisi African Folklore will feature folktales, legends, and myths, spirited drumming, dance and song, children’s games, lectures on special topics, and a healthy dose of the obligatory African tradition of audience participation.
This nationally and internationally acclaimed performing arts and educational initiative was founded in 1986 by husband-and-wife team Don (Professor at Ringling) and Tutu Harrell, with the expressed purpose of sharing the beauty and poignance of African life and culture.
This is part of our One Book One Community program, whose selection for 2022 is “The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind” by William Kamkwamba.
