ABOUT BAOBAB<br />
Directed by Kathy Armstrong,<br />
Baobab Tree has been offering<br />
public classes, performances and<br />
events celebrating West African<br />
music since 1995. The organization<br />
infuses its work with cultural<br />
connections to the village of<br />
Dagbamete in Ghana. For ten years<br />
it has raised money and awareness<br />
for education and health concerns in<br />
that region. Many of Baobab Tree's<br />
members have visited Ghana over<br />
the years and the youth group is<br />
planning to return in the summer of<br />
2006. In addition to sheer musical<br />
fun, drumming and dancing is a<br />
great way to relieve stress, improve<br />
mental flexibility and build<br />
community.<br />
