Ssuuna – Mujje: Come Together
$695.00

In this interactive dance assembly, Ssuuna opens a window to African culture through dance, music, and storytelling. Students compare and contrast cultures and learn the importance of respecting cultural differences. Ssuuna shares music from his native Uganda with authentic African instruments, such as the thumb piano and the one-stringed fiddle. Students have the chance to play alongside Ssuuna and learn a song in Luganda, the language of Uganda.
