INSPIRATION: Kobbi is a drum & puppet maker, but most of all a performer!  He loves to entertain and whether it's eating fire, drumming, or putting on puppets shows for children, his performances are unforgettable. He believes in educating African youth on traditions, all the while, thinking of innovative ways to keep Ghana’s culture progressive.  Kobbi owns a shop at the National Arts Center in Accra, Ghana’s capital.  "My work, I can say that is a family work because my grandfather is very good singer and that inspired me.  Also when I was a child, I made instruments and played with the other children, just for fun. Today that is a part of my profession. I always like my culture and working with much joy and very proud of it. Friends, you're always welcome in Ghana.  Come drum, sing and dance with Kobbi & puppets. You will have much fun, thanks."
