In the latest episode of “Better Know Cincy’s Arts,” we’ll take you behind the scenes with the voice (and rhythm) of African culture in the Cincinnati region.

Bi-Okoto uses drumming, dance and cultural education to connect students and audiences with African heritage and traditions. Join us as we visit their space, learn about their work and even learn how to drum with them!
