Join CCPL for another Library After Hours Event! This month we are featuring the Fusha Dance Company, sharing the dances prominent in African culture.
Fusha Dance Company is an urban dance company dedicated to celebrating the abundant richness of dance and culture from Africa and the Diaspora (Congo, West Africa, South America, the Caribbean). Under the artistic direction of Funmilayo Chesney the goal of FDC is to enrich lives, embolden confidence, and empower people through dance, drama, music, and visual arts. FDC promises to educate on the healing powers of dance and diet while encouraging cross-cultural appreciation and expanding options by building strong leaders in classrooms and communities. The dances of Fusha Dance Company celebrate events of the African culture such as planting and harvesting crops, welcoming of dignitaries, birth of triplets, scholastic and artistic achievements to name a few. FDC has specialized programs for events such as Kwanzaa, Black History Month, Dance Festivals, Cultural events, Healing classes and workshops. Arts in education programs and after school programs for children are also available. FDC has been achieving its goal by conducting dance classes, teaching workshops, performance in schools and cultural centers, hospitals, prisons, cultural festivals, in the United States and overseas.
This program will take place via Zoom. Zoom meeting information will be shared to registrants via email 1 hour prior to the program starting.
