Apparently it's a program teaching #AfricanDance in some schools, so all the dancers were #kids and #teens. Only girls, though, for some reason. I was surprised there weren't any boys.

It was 3 hours long, with a 15 minute intermission in the middle.

Today is the day!

Saw this poster advertising this #AfricanDance #concert, & on a whim I bought a ticket for it. ($38) I love #African #music & #dance. And yes, I know #Africa is huge with myriad cultures, but so far I have yet to find any African music I don't like.
