About the event

Creative Family Programming Presented by NexTier Bank.


Join us for Second Saturdays at the Buffalo & Erie County Central Library for a performance by Diaspora Drumming!


“Echoes of Africa” takes audiences on a journey from Guinea and Ghana in West Africa to Cuba, Mexico, and Brazil in the New World, following the paths of instruments and musical styles along the way. Performing traditional music on authentic instruments from three continents, members of Diaspora Drumming introduce listeners to pattern-based percussion, improvisation, and musical call-and-response. This exciting performance culminates in a group Brazilian carnival dance!


All are welcome to join at this FREE event, no registration required!
