CÍRCULO - Decolonial resistance, priestessing, chanting and women’s drumming

Tulipa’s Society Amsterdam and Teatro Munganga open their doors for a series of traditional singing and drumming workshops, enriched by events of sharing knowledge on Brazilian Candomblé and the tradition of priestesses.

To celebrate our encounter at CÍRCULO in 2024, we will close with a party starting with the workshop participants singing and drumming litanies to Oxalá, followed by Jongo drumming with researcher and chanter Marcela Varconte, musician Elisabeth Fadel and others, Forró das Flores and DJ Pyranã.

We will also cut the traditional Divino Cake by Curumim Cakes to make our lives sweeter and Caldinho de Feijão by Marília & suas Delícias. 

From 15h to 18h open doors Caixeiras litanies to Oxalá, from 18h on presentations and Djs

Concerts + party + Cake + Fodd
