On Sunday the 28th September 2014, Shoko Festival brought ‘Peace in the Hood’ – a live music concert, to the town of Chitungwiza.
Peace in the Hood consists of a stage under a large tent and a sound system that produces a large sound! Visitors park their cars wherever they please and it seems one of the things to do is sit on your bonnet or boot and have a few drinks while being entertained.
When a well known artist arrives such as Ba shupi, or Dadza D (who resides in the area), the children give them the warmest welcome, shouting their names and throwing out fist bumps.
Buddy Wakefield (USA) performance poet, three-time Individual World Poetry Slam Champion poses with some Chi town kids.
Every year a designated area such as a wall or public toilet is chosen for Zimbabwe’s best graffiti artists to do a performance piece in spray paint.
Shoko Festival’s Trusty Driver Jerry transports local and international artists to and from Chi Town.
A large portion of the crowd are children, who naturally make it a vibrant, fresh and exciting event.
Alex (USA) performed his fire poi, local break dancers joined in the circle, the crowds went mad, chanting “Fire, fire!”
