The largest emancipation observance will open in the National Park next Thursday. It will feature out of the continent of Africa, artistes who have thrilled audiences in Africa, Europe and North America.
The acrobats and jugglers will stun and delight with their amazing feats.
ACDA always puts on an Emancipation Festival that is filled with a variety of performances from first class local and international dance groups. Exquisite fashion displays will be hosted and prizes are to be won for best African wear.
Puppetry, face painting, folk games, storytelling, drumming and a Mime out of Nigeria would entertain children in the children’s centre.
Educational booths that tell the history of Guyana’s peoples of African ancestry will also be featured. Sports, steelbands, stilt walkers, fire dancers and magicians will all come to the Emancipation Festival for a grand African celebration.
