About the event

POSTPONED - Youba Kora: Senegalese Musician | Pop Ups at the Portal

Youba Cissohko, aka YoubaKora, is a 72nd-generation master kora player from Senegal. The kora, a traditional West African string instrument, is known for its beautiful melodies and rich history.

With decades of experience, YoubaKora brings a unique musical tradition to life. We are honored to have him join us at the Portal for a special performance!

Presented by local artist Gretchen Elise, we invite all to come out every Thursday between May 8 – June 5, and enjoy 5 weeks of all-age music, warm weather, and connecting with your community.
