FIELDTRIP!!
For our April Mix and Mingle, we have been invited downtown to LEAF Global Arts for an open house/fieldtrip! If you aren't familiar, LEAF Global Arts is on a mission CONNECTING CULTURES and CREATING COMMUNITY through world music, arts education, preservation and experiences. The closest distance between two people is a story, a song, or a dance.


In addition to being able to tour their space, talk to artists and leaders of the organization, and socialize with one another; LEAF has also put together the following:


@ 6pm Indian Folk Dance Lesson
Discover the excitement of Garba and Indian Folk dancing in a free lesson taught by LEAF Teaching Artist Heena Patel.

@
6:45pm West African Drumming Workshop
Learn West African drumming with Adama Dembele, a master djembe player from the Ivory Coast. All levels welcome!


Wine and Beer (and other non-alcoholic) beverages will be available for purchase.


As a non-profit with a great mission, LEAF is asking for a $10 donation at the door (if you are in a position to donate).
