Join us at Joan Lorentz Park on Saturday, May 18, from 1-3 p.m. for a special Sacred Songs and Rituals in celebration of Haitian Flag Day with Tjovi Ginen.
Tjovi Ginen is the preeminent interpreter of Vodoun music in the New England Area for over 25 years. Tjovi Ginen's high octane fusion of vodoun music characterized by pulsating rhythms and call and response, with reggae, ska, dub, and a variety of African traditional sounds will highlight Haiti's dynamic culture while paying homage to its African roots.
