In Spring, 2024, the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 46 in Seattle donated generously to support the performers to upgrade their instruments and costumes. Especially vital was to provide shoes for the dancers. The new performance space is built of concrete paving blocks which are rough on bare feet. Nicely matching shoes will also give the dancers a more professional look when they take the stage and will better support their swirling turns in front of excited fans.
New drums have been a fantastic addition to performance quality and have also been provided for Kinyana and Masoro Village so that they, too, can rehearse together. As their skills improve, the performers become more in touch with their traditions and are better able to display their unique style and interpretations of their ancestral beats.
