The evening will open with the African drumming group Africa Mamono. Alex Hirsch from WCAX TV will co-host with CVOEO's (Champlain Valley Office of Economic Opportunity) Sandrine Kibuey. This duo will bring light-hearted banter, knowledge of the New American community, and their passion for supporting our new neighbors to the stage. At the finish of the fashion show, Africa Mamono will reappear, and a dance party will follow. Proceeds will benefit CVOEO programs for New Americans.
