OUR MISSION:

OUR VISION:

The artistic vision of Ebo Okokán is to cultivate a regional and nationally recognized performing ensemble of musicians, dancers and singers. Our vision is to provide entertainment and education to show the connections and influences that the Afro-Cuban culture has had and continues to have on the American culture.

Ebo Okokán has existed in several forms before consolidating into its present configuration of musicians, dancers, and singers.  Since 1992, Ebo Okokán has presented workshops, performances, lectures and demonstrations from elementary schools to Universities, community events and other regional and local multi-cultural functions.  Beginning as a group of three musicians and two dancer/singers, Ebo Okokánhas grown as an ensemble to six drummers, six singers of which four are dancers.
