Fana Soro and Masabo...sharing West Africa in Eastern Canada

News alert! Fana Soro and Masabo will be heading East this summer and fall...Fana's family (see photo right) is being transplanted to the Ottawa area and will be installed by August 2009. Fana and Masabo will continue to tour, perform and teach in Vancouver and across the country as they have for the past 12 years now, but "Head Quarters" is moving from Vancouver to the country's capital, Ottawa. It is business as usual! Fana is looking forward to creating a new community of Masabo friends and fans on both the Ontario and Quebec sides of the border in Ottawa. And to his Vancouver friends and fans - he can never leave Vancouver, not really! Not ever...so it will become an African-Canadian Tale of Two Cities...Soro-Style. IMPORTANT! Please note:

Fana Soro and MASABO on Facebook
Dear Friends and Fans:
You can reach or add Fana Soro or look for the MASABO group on Facebook if you are so inclined. Although it can be a colossal time-waster (I have had first-hand experience with this), for the purposes of notifying folks when fun and interesting events around town are happening, it can be handy!
See you on FB!
Kind regards,
Lisa
