LA Made: Eskista

The library’s LA Made is a cultural programming series featuring free music, dance, theater, and conversations with local entertainers at libraries throughout the city, or these days on library social and distance platforms.  This February they will be bringing a performance of Eskista to our branch via Zoom. 

Join us for this exploration of Eskista – an Ethiopian cultural dance which is known for its unique emphasis on intense body movement – with Sinay Woubeshet & Fikru Weldekidan. Fikru and Sinay, originally from Ethiopia, share a mission to create and share culture throughout Los Angeles.

The program will take place on Saturday, February 13 at 3:00. Email ayosco@lapl.org for the program link.
