Eleggua is a group of 9 Afro-descendent women cultural workers from the Barlovento region of Venezuela, who specialize in preserving and transmitting traditional Afro-Venezuelan music to future generations. Eleggua has traveled the world serving as cultural ambassadors for Venezuela and promoters of the gains of the Bolivarian revolution and Afro-Venezuelan history, culture and politics. 

This event is co-sponsored by the Consulate of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela – New Orleans and CITGO.
