West African Rhythms & Flavors

It’s a day devoted to the food and music of West Africa. Join chef and author Sallie Ann Robinson in the kitchen as she shares stories and prepares her famous coastal specialties. Her tales of growing up in the Gullah culture of Daufuskie Island, SC are a glimpse into a vanishing way of life. On the front lawn, captivating drum sounds will reverberate as the founders of DrumRise demonstrate the drumming techniques they learned from Guinean master drummer Mamady Keita. After a brief lesson, stay and join in the drum circle.
