In some African traditions, the griot held the story of the local people - the village, family or clan. The griot pulled together the strands of the story which represented the various people who took part in it. Kept these strands and held them safe. Savoured them, treasured them. Wove them together to form a cloth, a whole that blended the assorted colours and shadings into a pattern which told the story of the people.

This workshop uses storytelling and creativity to help us to discover and explore our cultural inheritance.  We reinforce a positive sense of cultural identity through celebrating our African ancestors, heroes and sheroes.
