The Center for Traditional Music and Dance and its Haitian Community Cultural Initiative, Ayiti Fasafas, invite you to Verite Sou Tanbou: Truths about Haitian Vodou, a three-part series of educational workshops on Haitian Vodou practice and performance in New York City.

Local Vodou artists and practitioners come together to demonstrate a variety of Haitian Vodou art forms and to honor New York City Manbo (Vodou priestess) Mama Lola, whose lifelong contributions to preserving and passing on the traditions of Vodou in Brooklyn and beyond, have been documented in Karen McCarthy Brown’s recently re-issued classic ethnography, Mama Lola: A Vodou Priestess in Brooklyn (University of California Press, 2011).
Mama Lola’s daughter, grand-daughter, and family will be on hand as she receives a special award recognizing her special place as a leader and healer in the history of Vodou culture and community.
