Urban Foli Drum Orchestra founded and directed by Menes Yahudah, master djembe drummer and musical director.  Urban Foli is an eclectic mix of traditional West African music, jazz, funk, hip-hop, spoken word, dance and truth.

Foli is a word from the Manding people of west Africa, meaning "music" is used to describe the orchestra's cache of traditional drumming forms with contemporary urban beats and rhythmic story telling. 

Urban Foli provides workshops for both men, women and children.

Students who advance to intermediate level are invited to participate in performances and orchestra rehearsals.

Fall has arrived and it's time to pull out the sweaters, boots, and evening finery for the upcoming cocktail and holiday parties. Many of these items such as dresses, shoes, belts and bags are no longer your "go to" friends. It's time to move them along to make way for the new and different.

The Wine & Tea Sexy City Swap allows women to exchange gently used upscale items while enjoying the company of local fashionistas.

We will swap style stories, make-up tips, shopping sites and spots, while sipping and dipping lite fare on a Fall afternoon.

Bring 5 items that are upscale and gently used:

- evening clothes
- coats
- sweaters
- shoes
- boots
- belts
- gloves
- hats
- bags
- etc.

How it works... each participant will get to pull a number to determine the order she will get to choose an item. There will be 5 rounds of swaps.

A photographer will be present to take your style photo.
