Multicultural Education at Schools

Africa is extremely rich in drum and dance culture.  Dr. Djo Bi can bring that experience to life for your students,  regardless of their level.  He is available for classroom presentations, assemblies, and short-  or long-term artist residency engagements to suit your interests.  Bring Dr. Djo Bi to your school to share the culture of African music with your students.  You and your students are sure to love it! 

Multicultural education is so valuable to your students’ lives.  Dr. Djo Bi  Productions offers many opportunities for your students to learn about  African culture, drumming and dancing from the Ivory Coast.  African hand drumming has long been at the core of village and urban life.  History, cultural  celebrations and activities of daily life are some of what is expressed in the musical experience of African Culture. 

Dr. Djo Bi Productions can bring much to life for your students to enrich their understanding of culture, music and dance, theatre and language.  To suit your individual needs, Dr. Djo Bi Productions can come to your classroom for small group presentations, as well as assemblies, or for short- or long-term resident artist services.

Dr. Djo Bi Productions not only provides enjoyable entertainment, but also enriches the lives and critical thinking skills of those who participate.  With visits to schools, Dr. Djo Bi Productions addresses many academic standards across various disciplines for the Indiana Department of Education Standards.
