FREE family friendly workshops at Wythenshawe’s Forum Library – Saturday 16 October 2021

Families joined in with music, singing, drumming, and craft workshops

We had a fabulous afternoon of FREE family-friendly workshop at Wythenshawe’s Forum Library on 16 October. 

There was singing and drumming from Central Africa with the world-class musicians, Emmanuela Yogolelo and Serge Tebu.

We made beautiful dolls using African fabric with Gloria Saya, a leading artist from the Congo, Africa.

“I love to learn new things and I hate waste. I learned that from my dad who taught us to recycle everything. This is how I started making dolls from old clothes and fabrics from my mum’s sewing workshop.”
