Sankofa is Ghanaian for "go back and fetch". This event embraces the cultural values, traditions and issues that form part of the African Caribbean heritage.

Through a mixture of traditional dance, music, songs, chanting, drumming and story telling, Alé Douvan will take you on a magical Journey to rediscover some of the forgotten jewels of Africa and the Caribbean.

Feel the pulse of the earth and experience the spirit that has remained alive through the generations. Come along to the event.
