"Being able to know many of the company personally adds to what Africana offers. They are a team and family- taking care of each other which in turn takes care of the community around them. They desire to effect change through their performances and they accomplish this everything they walk on stage."

"Move the World has had the honor of working alongside Africana since 2015. Being taught traditional dances, drumming and cultural differences of Ghana, each member of Africana clearly portrays passion to teach and to learn. Move the World has ran leadership development workshops with the trustees and saw first hand the teamwork already in place. Each member of Africana brings something to the troupe, allowing them to continue to grow and inspire others."
