Nkabom Cultural Troupe

The Nkabom Children’s Cultural Troupe is a professional children’s group that was founded in the village of Okurase and has operated for 9 years.

The Concern

Although music and dance in rural villages are daily life, few children have the opportunity to engage in a structured group that performs and rises to a professional level. Sharing local culture is critical to the people of Ghana.

Nkabom Cultural Dance Troupe

The Nkabom Children’s Cultural Troupe was formed in 2008 by Samuel Nkrumah “Powerful” Yeboah. The vision in bringing the children together was for them to tell stories of their community and share African dance, drumming, and culture around Ghana ahttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qE42Vq0Kyuo&feature=relmfund around the world. A second goal was to give the children a direction in life. Nkabom is from the Twi language meaning bringing together.
