Cary Library: An Evening with the Wampanoag Singers and Dancers (For All Ages)
Wednesday, November 30, 2022
Come see the Wampanoag Nation Singers and Dancers, a group of musicians and artisans from the tribal communities of Mashpee on Cape Cod and Aquinnah on Martha's Vineyard. Their performances of eastern social songs and dances have both educated and entertained audiences of all ages in museums, schools, and various multi-cultural events. They dress in their traditional clothing and their songs are accompanied by a water drum and handcrafted rattles. Audience participation is encouraged! They prefer to sing with the people instead of for the people.
