Drop-in Family Program.
Since the dawn of time, storytelling has been an ancient art form of conveying crucial information from generation to generation, helping communities to grow and helping children to engage with their creativity and imagination. This 75-minute workshop with Jacqui Du Toit focuses on engaging participant's imagination with theatrical games and voice exercises. Participants will learn the art of retelling stories from the motherland. Ages: 8-14.
About Jacqui Du Toit:
Born and raised in South Africa, Jacqui Du Toit is known for her animated stories from the mother land. By combining gestures, movement, singing, facial expressions, and dramatic impersonations that spark the audience, Jacqui knows how to captivate the audience with more than just words.
This event is made possible thanks to the generosity of the Friends of the Ottawa Public Library Association.

Ali Farka Touré: Ça coule de source (2012)
52 minutes. Gracieuseté de Kanopy.
De la guitare électrique au petit violon monocorde des paysans songhays, l’art d’Ali Farka Touré est multiforme. Une caméra très mobile suit le premier Africain à avoir reçu un Grammy Award. De concerts à Bamako aux cultes de possession dédiés aux « génies du fleuve », en passant par les campements touaregs ou la ville mystérieuse de Tombouctou, nous découvrons tout à la fois, par le commentaire d’Ali, la splendide région de la boucle du Niger et un individu remarquable, qui concilie une carrière de musicien international et de cultivateur dans son village.
