DESCRIPTION:The 6th African Arts Festival celebrates the glorious diversity and 
 extraordinary creativity of the continent’s peoples. Co-presented by 
 Duniya Dance and Drum Company and the Yerba Buena Gardens Festival, it’s 
 a family-friendly celebration of live music and dance featuring Bay Area 
 ensembles representing different regions of Africa and the African 
 diaspora. \n\nFormed in April 2007, Duniya Dance and Drum Company creates 
 dance and music from the Indian state of Punjab, the West African nation of 
 Guinea and beyond, as well as unique blends of these forms. Along with 
 interactive activities like dance and drum lessons and face-painting for 
 children, vendors offer a variety of traditional African food and goods for 
 sale, including clothing, jewelry, hair care and skin care. \n\n“The idea 
 for the festival came from the desire to bring Africans and the diaspora 
 together as one community in the Bay Area, to inspire each other and share 
 each other’s culture,” explains Duniya Dance and Drum Company Artistic 
 Director Bongo Sidibe. “We are highlighting joy and celebrating who we 
 are as Black people.”\n\n\n
