Mark Your Calendars!
Planning is well underway for Zimfest 2010, the largest gathering of Zimbabwean music fans in North America, which will take place over the weekend of August 20-22, 2010 on the campus of Oregon State University in Corvallis, Oregon, US. The OSU campus located in the “heart of the Willamette Valley” will provide a low cost, close in, extended family feel for Zimfest 2010. Double occupancy rooms in dormitories will be under $50 per person including 3 meals. The outdoor concerts and marketplace will be created in large field directly across from the dorms. Evening concerts will be staged in a brand new, state of the art performance hall. And most importantly, we will welcome many old and new friends to attend workshops, to teach to perform and to hang out together!
Mark your calendars now to attend Zimfest 2010, “Timeless Rhythms: Deep Roots, Many Branches”.
Please visit this blog often or go to www.zimfest.org to keep informed of upcoming announcements about teachers, performers, workshops and date the registration guide will go online. For more information contact 2010@zimfest.org
