Join West African drumming master Mamadou Traore and friends for a performance and drum circle in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy. We will honor the pursuit of justice with the beat of the djembe! A limited number of drums will be available, so bring your own if you have one. We will also have a display of West African art curated by Traore, and light refreshments to share. In the spirit of community, you’re invited to bring snacks or drinks to share.
Proceeds will benefit International House Davis, the musicians, and drum-making communities in Ivory Coast, West Africa.
