Fara’s concept behind this piece: “We need to be safe at this point in time and our planet is calling out for help from all of us. This is the time to deal with our own issues that we have not been dealing with and to love everyone unconditionally.” Kissidugu means “a safe place.” This cultural arts extravaganza is sure to provide viewers of all ages a rich experience that promotes wellness and increases unity. All proceeds go to support further cultural arts programming in CB and that a portion of proceeds go to the Kissidugu School of Music, Dance and Education in Guinea.
