INTERNATIONAL MARKETPLACE AND MUSICFEST with LIBANA!
You are cordially invited to an intimate afternoon with World Music Ensemble LIBANA in anticipation of their upcoming performance tour in MOROCCO!

Come and meet the extraordinary women of Libana, enjoy a short set of their music and dance, and sample international delicacies and wines! In addition, this very special afternoon features a "Trunk Show" shopping experience, featuring a festive array of primarily Fair Trade Arts and Crafts from India, Kashmir, Ghana, Rwanda, Guatemala and El Salvador. Beautiful hand-crafted jewelry, decorative pillow covers, bird totas, tableware, baskets, fabric wall art, scarves, mirrored lampshades and more!

All proceeds from donations and crafts sales will benefit Libana's upcoming performance tour in Morocco, including the Tarab Tanger World Music Festival and the Tetouan Women's Voices Festival!

Whether you are new to Libana or a longtime fan, we are eager to share with you the profound connections these musicians are creating!  We are inspired by their work, and would be thrilled to see you on April 28.it promises to be a wonderful afternoon!--Your hosts, Andrea Hart and Lisa Prior

With a 30-year history of international performance celebrating women's musical and cultural traditions from around the world, Libana has garnered critical acclaim from Washington D.C.'s Smithsonian Series to concert halls across the country to music festivals in Bulgaria, Canada, Greece, India, and beyond.

In addition to the cultural bridge-building of their in-depth research and performance of women's music and dance from around the world, Libana also supports organizations in India and other countries that are promoting women's empowerment.  As part of this mission, Libana creates opportunities like this "Marketplace" to sell, at equitable prices, hand-crafted items created by artisan collectives. These gorgeous crafts display traditional artistic patterns and techniques, and the Fair Trade arrangement is a means of bettering the societal status, economic reality, and empowerment of these women artisans and their families.
