GIWAYEN MATA CONCERT

This Mother's Daughter is a production about a mother's and daughter's experiences as the daughter journeys to womanhood. Filled with

songs, rhythms and dances of Africa and the African Diaspora performed by GIWAYEN  MATA, daughters of GIWAYEN MATA, and children in CARPE, GIWAYEN MATA'S Community Artreach Program of Excellence, this concert will prove to be a wonderful way to celebrate the women we love, respect and appreciate. This

Mother's Daughter visits the innocence and eagerness of childhood, the

challenges and conflicts of adolescence, including  hormonal changes and the hardships of peer

pressure and bullying. It culminates in the rediscovery of self-love and

cultural appreciation. This Mother's Daughter is likely to cause mothers,

daughters and fathers to reflect on their own experiences as children and as

parents. Sisters will certainly be reminded of the fortitude that is required

to be all that we can be in the roles as mothers, sisters, daughters and wives.

Join GIWAYEN MATA as we present this long awaited tribute.
