Dec. 30 we will highlight and celebrate our youth!
Kwanzaa is not a religious holiday. It is a cultural celebration for the African American community to acknowledge and reconnect to ancestral African/Caribbean/Indigenous roots and culture. It is a time to celebrate our children, our elders and our legacies. It is a time to think about our future and making our communities stronger. Our celebration through dance offers an opportunity to learn about Kwanzaa and to acknowledge its importance.
For 30+ years the Lula Washington Dance Theatre has produced its annual Kwanzaa Celebrations before live audiences. The performance has been highlighted on KCET's nationally televised Holiday Celebration filmed at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles CA; and on many local daytime TV shows over the years. This is engaging, uplifting and fun for the entire family.
It will be a night to remember and a great way to usher in the new year!
