Dancers and musicians of the visiting Hayor Bibimma Dance Company perform during African Night 2010 at the Rozsa Center. Based in the Twin Cities, this West African dance group specializes in traditional West African drumming, dance and storytelling. Their name means "bringing the masses of Mother Africa together."
As a finale to their performance, Hayor Bibimma members invite the audience to join them on stage for an African dance. The dance company aims to increase public participation in traditional African performing arts, enhance cultural awareness and ease public accessibility to the richness of African heritage.
