Would love your honest opinion. 

Please comment below. My new play, Black Mothers Don't Say I Love You, will be presented in a workshop/reading production Saturday May 17th, 8:30 pm at the Rock Paper Sistahz festival in Toronto, Ontario. Get your TICKETS they are going fast!!

There has been some discussions around the title, people either love it or hate it, and I've had several folks email me about the title or wish to engage about the title. Thus, after the performance on Saturday we will be discussing the title, with the audience, and have members of the community on the panel to offer their feedback as well.

Just in time for Black history month, IFreeCan is launching a new initiative called Artfrican – a mobile school that will offer free African art classes in Toronto. By offering the classes at different locations throughout the year IFreeCan is hoping to reach a wide range of people from across the GTA.

The first series of classes will be hosted by Professor Pablo Idahosa, director of development studies at York University, and starts February 15^th with an introductory lecture titled "Understanding Africans, Understanding Material Culture and Art - Unity and Diversity in the Continent". 

Whether you’re an art buff or just someone who’s always wanted to know more about African art, these interactive lecture style classes are a great way to learn more about the art while meeting like-minded people.
