Company Detail |
|
Djole Dance Company, a West African dance and drumming company, was formed in 1999 through a project conducted by the Medical University of South Carolina, the City of North Charleston and the Union Heights neighborhood, just north of Charleston. Djole was formed as a result of a community dedicated to improving the quality of life in their neighborhood. Djole encourages children to get off the street, move toward a more positive path in life and improve their health status. |
