Africa in Motion

The National Museum of African Art has incorporated visual arts programming into its museum education to create an invigorating and stimulating learning environment in which children, adults and families can discover and appreciate the profound cultural traditions of Africa.

This video is from Award winning composer, playwright and pianist Tony M. Small. He performed original works from his Tales and Traditions series including It Takes a Village, and other original music that shows the rich connection and influence of African culture on America's indigenous Tales and Traditions.
