We have been invited by Dara, a local French Teacher to join her school in Alexandria, VA on W. Braddock rd. Jan. 31st from about 9-11:30ish (times will be firmed up) for a culture day at my school. Dara is in charge of the Senegal station, and is a native from Senegal. The Djembe of course is one of the most popular instruments in her country and She is really excited to have a few volunteers to come in and share the beautiful rhythmic music of the djembe. The students attending will be in the 1st-7th grade. As reward for helping Dara out she has promised make Chebuchen and Poulet Yassa! If any of you teach the drums it would also be a great way to advertise.
Hey Daniel, how did the event go? Was it fun? Really thankful you took Dara up on this opportunity to help out! Would love your feedback.
