Many different stories can be unravelled from African Kente cloth. Here the stories of the cloth will be unwrapped for you in the traditional oral technique of a Griot (storytelling). The workshop will also consist of a short film and animation to reveal the history and art of Kente. You will have the opportunity to create your own print on a t-shirt, learn to wrap yourself in traditional cloth and have a portrait taken. (All for Free)
