Featuring a unique dance collaboration with the DanceAfrica Spirit Walkers and Billie's Youth Arts Academy Dance Ensemble, the festival will also incorporate the mesmerizing polyphonic sounds of the Women Of The Calabash ensemble, known for their captivating performances using calabashes of various sizes.
"When children are exposed to a new culture or a new dance form, you can see their perception of African culture and the continent change," said Karen Thornton, Program Director for the Billie Holiday Theatre Youth Arts Academy. "Every year, they are blown away by the students," Thornton said.
