Essential African Threads (Smithfield)
June 19 @ 10:30 am - 11:30 am
From “Anansi the Spider” to “Brer Rabbit,” traditional slave tales have hidden meanings that serve to educate and celebrate African American history. Storyteller Dylan Pritchett brings the early days of slavery to life through these tales that are wound tightly with themes of family strength and morals.
This is a free, family-friendly program that will take place on the Main Street Stage in downtown Smithfield. Thanks to the Virginia African American Cultural Center, Virginia Commission for the Arts, and the National Endowment for the Arts for underwriting this performance.
