6th Annual African Arts in the Park 2010
"Many Cultures, One Community"

Saturday, August 14, 2010 & Sunday, August 15, 2010
11am to 7pm
Allegheny Commons Park - Pittsburgh, PA

Participants will have the opportunity to view and hear African Art presentations through live stage music; a browse through the vendor marketplace; stop at booths for demonstration of an art form, such as head wrapping or drum-making; or perhaps take part in an interactive workshop such as poetry or spoken word.  The festival will bring a variety pf African artists and organizations together for two days of celebration and the opportunity to share and demonstrate traditional African and African influenced genres of art.  Imagine over 5,000 attendees including mysterious stilt-walkers, invigorating steel drummers, expressive African dancers and storytellers weaving tales, and strolling sogows (life-sized African puppets).  It's an awesome visual...isn't it?
