Firehouse Presents: A Day in Africa

Join LHUCA for a lively journey through Africa, led by our knowledgeable guide, Elizabeth Kahura! Elizabeth will lead attendees through a virtual tour of the continent, showcasing its stunning geography and unique cultures. Expect to be charmed by the richness of African life, as Elizabeth introduces the different lifestyles, customs, and traditions of its people.

Using an array of visual aids such as slides and traditional artifacts, Elizabeth will lead attendees into the vibrant world of African music and dance. Attendees will get to see authentic instruments up close, feel the rhythm of African music, and even receive a primer on the widely spoken Swahili language.

But it’s not just about sight and sound – this program is also a lesson in diversity and values. As attendees explore the richness and variety of African culture, Elizabeth will highlight how positive values can be shared and embraced across cultures. Concepts like character development and self-empowerment will become tangible through this engaging experience.
