MATSIKO CHILDREN'S CHOIR PERFORMANCE

Saturday, September 26, 7:30 PM

Join us to hear the Matsiko Children’s Choir, a Ugandan musical group composed of 25 orphaned and at-risk children, ages 9–16, who promote the plight of children in Uganda. The performance will include choral singing, cultural dances, staged dramas, and powerful, complex drum routines. Following the performance, they will sell their CDs, jewelry, and t-shirts to help raise funds for the International Children’s Network. The Matsiko directors, James Kaggwa and Samuel Kiberu Straxy, are two men whose college education was funded by the ICN.

Matsiko gets it name from the Ugandan word for “hope.” Last year, the group released its second album, “If Love Was Love,” which will be available for purchase at the concert.

Free and open to the public.
