Griot kids tell stories

Our students underwent a two-day storytelling bootcamp led by professional storyteller and performer, David Rodwin. They practiced things such as choosing which parts of a story to tell, delivery, body language, and more. Upon completion of the workshop, our students had the chance to perform live in front of a community audience. It was clear from the audience’s laughter that they did an amazing job.
