Osun Arts Foundation - Workshops

The forms of drama used in Africa are different from the forms used in the west. In Africa a drama is usually inclusive of music and dance. Classes first listen to stories and consider the personalities involved. They later dramatize a selected story with supportive song, music and dance.

Children will be able to learn how people act in a drama and they will be able to dramatize what they learned throughout the workshop. Their talents and ability to act or dramatise a story will be exhibited at the end of our stay with them. Our sessions with children are always fun, friendly and remarkably unforgettable for the children.

Drama

We always aim for full participation in all our plans and services. Our plans include:

Exhibitions and festivals of works of all kinds by Artists from Africa and others.

Training projects in unique Afrcan art: Designs & symbols for textiles in batik or wax printing, traditional mat weaving, Adinkra & Kente weaving.

Workshops in African visual and performing arts, dances and drumming ( especially traditional talking drumming).

Participatory multi-cultural arts projects for ages 6-14 in schools and community centres.

Promoting access to such events to provide equality of opportunity, and help prevent discrimination of any kind.

Proper documentation of works of African Artists collected throughout the world.

You can book Osun Arts for special occasions such as children parties and other celebrations. You can choose from a variety of activities inlcuding smaller performances and interactive presentation (storytelling, dance and music)
