One of the highlights of our 2004-5 academic year was bringing in nationally recognized performer Marilyn Middleton-Sylla
for a workshop on African culture, including African dance & drumming. Marilyn was so captivating that she had parents
and children alike making beautiful music and dancing like pros!
