doek festival 2016 a resounding success

The Doek ABC Festival is over. It was wonderful, thanks to the great musicians, dancers, venues, cooks, photographers, filmers, techies, volunteers, drivers and – last but certainly not least – thanks to all the people who turned out in great numbers to listen, watch and enjoy. We’ll be posting films, photos and more in the coming weeks, in the meantime here’s a few nice memories (photos by Beata Szparagowska).
