Tufts University’s Kiniwe Ghanaian Performance Ensemble

Join us for our first-ever concert of Ghanaian music. Tufts University's Kiniwe Ghanian Performance Ensemble will perform traditional music of Ghana, under the direction of Nani Agbeli.

Mr. Agbeli, a native of the Ewe from the Volta Region of Ghana, has been a guest artist at schools in Ghana, Jamaica, and the United States. He is the founder/director of Woezo: Drum, Dance, and Art of West Africa, an organization named for the Ewe word meaning "You are welcome! My house is your house," which offers educational programs in Ghanaian arts and culture. This evening will begin with a short performance, followed by an explanation of the components and an interactive opportunity for the audience to play!

Admission is free and seating is limited (donations are gratefully accepted). Doors open at 7:00 p.m. for the Shop and archaeological exhibit. Refreshments are served.
