We are currently at the esplanade of Yaoundé City Hall to watch the “Veillée de Contes du Vivre Ensemble” presented by the Association Carrefour des Conteurs Contemporains as part of the 52nd National Day celebrations.
This evening of storytelling is taking place here in the district of encestral and patrimonial know-how. Several artists from the 4 cultural areas of Cameroon are performing on stage for the pleasure of the spectators.
