Heart & Hand: Meet Nii Addico, Master Drummer & Woodcarver

Meet Nii Addico, a renowned artist and woodcarver originally from Ghana. Together with his wife Bronwyn they run Creation Africa, a small company based in waterloo, created to showcase Nii’s work and raise awareness for the rich African culture here in Canada. Visit www.creationafrica.com to learn more about Nii, his process and his works.  

Nii will be joining us for Heart & Hand 2012 at Joseph Schneider Haus as both a carver and a drummer, demonstrating his traditional carving techniques as well as displaying and selling his beautifully hand carved pieces. Nii will also be leading two dynamic drum circles on the day. Join in between 10:30 and 11 a.m. or from 3 to  4 p.m. Bring your own drum or borrow one of the many instruments Nii will be bringing along with him. It’s fun and therapeutic, you won’t want to miss!
