Register for ZIMFEST – Corvallis, OR – Aug 20-22

The new ZimFest registration site, http://2010.zimfest.org/, is in full swing and getting rave reviews!

"Very nice job on the registration website, it works great and it's easy to use! I especially like how you can view the workshops in several ways, like clicking on the teacher and seeing what classes he/she teaches." ~Doug Epps

Wonderful workshops and captivating classes are open and waiting for your registration!

• Move your body in a Zimbabwean dance class offered by Julia Chigamba, Lora Chiorah-Dye, or Lucky Moyo.
• Don’t miss Chris Berry's Advanced Marimba Composition class on Sunday.
• Joel Laviolette, who does not make it this far west very often, is offering classes on Matepe mbira, Sungura style guitar, and Nyanga panpipe music!
• How about a Renold Shonhai or Caution Shonhai workshop? A great way to meet Zimbabweans new to this venue is to take one of their classes.

Join the Thursday Evening Opening Ceremony and Concert on August 19, featuring the dedication and blessing of ZimFest 2010 by our elders and performances by Kudana Marimba and other regional marimba groups!
