UPCOMING EVENTS

Join Us for a Noble Cause:

The Sights and Sounds of Zimbabwe

a fundraiser in Petaluma ($20 suggested donation)

Featuring:

Piwai

Singer/Performer Piwai is an outstanding Zimbabwean artist known for her unique blend of traditional African music: Afrojazz, Reggae, and Neo Soul styles. She is hailed as "The Girl with the Magical Mbira."

This will be a community event showcasing Piwai’s amazing musical talent and a photo exhibit depicting Zimbabwean history and culture.

Philip Chudy lived in Zimbabwe for many years and documented Zimbabwean life through his photography skills, following in the footsteps of his photographer father. His artwork captures much of the visual experience that Piwai’s music expresses.

Future events will feature other artists including Clare Nyakujara, Nasibo and Filbert Marova, among many more.
