Ku Kyooto with Giovanni Kiyingi (Bonfire with Giovanni Kiyingi)
Description
The program is a reproduction of an African bonfire that I grew up attending in most family gatherings in Uganda. During this time, a lot went on; people told stories, and musical families played music as many danced almost all night. For Children this was a learning time, many skills, fashion, face painting styles, and ironsmith jewelry was displayed together happily.
