African Rhythm Synergy
African Rhythm Synergy is another exciting educational program offered by the Cherry Creek Arts Festival. Facilitators Pamelah Maragh and Fatu, are two distinguished members of the performance group Jambalaya and are the force behind this high-energy multicultural presentation. Using a myriad of percussion instruments from Latin American and African countries, they demonstrate how Africa and the Americas have merged musically and culturally.
This outreach highlights the performing arts aspect of the Arts Festival and helps to broaden the array of arts education opportunities offered. African Rhythm Synergy is a fantastic way to heighten multicultural awareness among students while celebrating social harmony through drumming, song and dance.
