Sibikwa invites school learners and families to immerse themselves in the vibrant tapestry of African culture at our Africa Month event, where the rhythmic heartbeat of Africa will come alive through the infectious beats of a schools marimba band jam, engaging body percussion workshops, interactive activities and enlightening lecture demonstrations that unfold the historical and cultural significance behind the melodies. The Marimba Jam is more than an event; it is a journey of discovery, a celebration of unity through music, and an opportunity to connect with the richness of Africa’s cultural heritage. Join us for an experience that promises to be an unforgettable exploration of rhythm, creativity, and the boundless beauty of African music and traditions.
