Join Garth Prince and Tololwa M Mollel as they share their African-inspired 3-year long multimedia “Grazing Back Home” (GBH) project that has resulted into an engaging children’s picture story book with Kiswahili language music. The workshop will consist of a richly varied program, that will include demonstrations by Garth and Tololwa of their unique collaboration, a practical taste of Kiswahili (aka Swahili), the most widely spoken African language in Africa, and samples of the story and its music. Workshop participants will also enjoy other hands-on activities.
Each workshop participant will be sent their own copy of Grazing Back Home. (via Board Truck mail).
This session is limited to 20 participants.
