Featured Artists: AKOMA DRUMMERS feat. Michael Kweku Owusu

Our Featured Artist for the November 5 Market is AKOMA DRUMMERS feat. Michael Kweku Owusu

Here's some more info ON Michael and his charity: Drumming up from Poverty

Michael Kweku Owusu is an artist and craftsman from Accra, Ghana who has spent the last 10 years of his life studying traditional West African drumming, building traditional drums, and working with impoverished children in the Arts Center - a constructed community where some of Ghana's most talented artists and craftspeople live and work. In 2007, Kweku founded Drumming Up From Poverty, whose mission is to unite talented artists and craftspeople to develop and share their artistry while building support for street children. Kweku supports this mission by teaching the traditional rhythms and songs of his country, and selling his hand carved drums.
