Special Artistic Guests in 2020
Extra-Ancestral

Extra-Ancestral founded by Kahlil Cummings, began in 2017 as an ensemble that aimed to educate audiences through the fusions of hypnotic Afrobeat, Reggae, Jazz, Afro-Latin, and Traditional African diasporic rhythms, narrated by powerful ancestral dancing. Extra Ancestral provides an in-depth education of temporal and geographic boarders from Africa to the Americas and back, providing lessons from the past to hone tools for the future. Extra- Ancestral uses music and dance as a healing tool led by some of LA’s most dynamic artists. These artists engage in revolutionary performances of black survival that invoke—poignantly resist—500 years of forced transatlantic passages between West Africa and the Americas. Extra- Ancestral seeks to incorporate and integrate music, dance, visual arts, and community engagement as a form of empowerment to reduce the transgenerational trauma that exists in communities of color. Historically, music and dance have been considered the oldest form of medicine, Extra-ancestral seeks to combine the tradition of healing through music using dances, rituals, and messages to elevate and empower communities of color. This vision manifests into performance productions, dance classes, workshops and music education with artists across the African Diaspora. As a result, Extra- Ancestral is composed of three branches: Performance, Music & Dance Workshops, and an all queen ensembled, Bloco Obini.
