5th International festival of African culture

BAOFEST 2014 is humanitarian

A call from West Africa

Ljubljana, 13 & 14 December

Studio Baobab and Plesni teater Ljubljana (Dance theater Ljubljana)

 

The Baobab society aims to surpass the existing situation and the consequent society’s failure to understand tolerant coexistence by organising an annual international festival of African culture in Slovenia and act against the wider public’s prejudice through presenting cultural traditions and practices of African dance, music, multimedia performance art, innovative pedagogical approaches and expert and popular literature.

In a cooperation with Zavodom Ceres we are organising humanitarian concert on 14th of December. We will contribute money from selling tickets for buying medical instruments in fight against virus Ebola.

We will also issue are new CD named “Why not.” by our music production Inspiral. You can already listen to some of the songs on this link.
