A special night of Kurdish dance!
Govend London is a community dance group that aims to connect people from diverse backgrounds and experiences through a cross-cultural exchange of Kurdish dance and music. They create inclusive, friendly, non-judgemental social spaces where people from complete beginners to the more advanced, come together to learn, exchange, and dance. “Govend” is the umbrella name of Kurdish dances – taking the form of the circle dance, usually in a line with dancers holding hands. They are mixed-gender, group dances danced at festivals, birthdays, New Year, Newroz, demonstrations, marriages and other ceremonies.
There will be workshop at 7.30pm, followed by social dancing!
Jamboree food option: The ‘Arepatoire’ kitchen residency at Jamboree ended on February 16th. Our next guest kitchen will open on March 1st! More info TBA!
