This Sunday at First Church - 10 am

West African Dance & Drums

Dance to the Music
of the Drum

First Church of Christ, Congregational
190 Court Street
Middletown, CT

In my search for a home church a few years ago, I decided to give First Church another chance. It was a life-changing decision: As I walked into the Parish Hall, the hypnotic fullness of drum beat and energy stirred me beyond words, and I was home.

On Sunday, Guinean dance and drum master Aly Tatchol Camara will again perform at First Church. A choreographer, as well as singer, dancer, and drummer, Aly is a native of the West African country of Guinea and principal dance instructor for the New Haven School of African Dance and Drumming at Yale University. He will perform with his son and with the First Church African Drumming Ensemble. We invite you to come and see what it's all about.
