Featured Guest Artists:

HraiMore (“The Sea is Playing Music”) is a Ukrainian folk ensemble founded by local volunteers dedicated to preserving and sharing traditional Ukrainian culture. Through authentic costumes, songs, dances, and rituals informed by deep ethnographic research, HraiMore invites participants into the rich musical heritage of Ukraine. The group is a part of the Ukrainian Cultural Center Toloka. HraiMore provides a welcoming space for artistic expression, assisting individuals to find harmony and balance through the joy and depth of Ukrainian traditional art. Our creativity is not just a form of expression; it's a journey of wonder and appreciation, a source of awe and inspiration.

One World Dance & Drum exists to bring the power and magic of dance, drum and intercultural experiences alive and real for all people. Through our classes, programs, and services, we ignite awareness, generate community and bring forward the possibility of global transformation. Led by longtime cultural ambassadors Sarah Lee Parker and Baba Kauna Mujamal, One World Dance & Drum brings the music and movement of West Africa to life. Sarah has traveled to Guinea over 18 times, studying and building cultural bridges through dance and music. Baba Kauna, a master of traditional West African dance with over 30 years of experience, has trained and performed across Africa, Europe, and the U.S. Together, they create high-energy, participatory experiences that invite everyone to feel the beat and sing from the soul.
