ANANSI CONTINUES...
Anansi was back in Schools at Bishop Anstey High School East & Trinity College East. There were 2 performances and 2 Wire Bending/2D to 3D Visualisation & Construction Workshops in a whole day event encompassing nearly every student in the school.

Thanks again to my team Laurence Richardson artisan extraordinaire, and my actors Carlos and Nicola who portrayed the 3rd Dragon and Anansi respectively.

School Performances will continue throughout the coming weeks. As well there will be a National Bookstore Reading Tour on Saturdays throughout March.

All this activity culminates with the SEASON OF ANANSI FOLKLORE FESTIVAL in April & May. Activities will include:
- a re-staging of the 'BLACK INFINITE: THE GLOBAL RISE OF AFRO-FUTURISM' Exhibition at NALIS;
- the Schools Storytelling Tour; and
- a very special TRIBUTE TO THE STORYTELLERS event you will NOT want to miss!!!
