Welcome to the Mesgana Dancers 2007 Millennium tour website! The Mesgana Dancers are returning for their second USA tour presented by Children of Ethiopia Education Fund (COEEF) and Ethiopia Reads. This year’s tour has been expanded to include many more cities and venues so more people can see these wonderful girls perform their stunning display of Ethiopian cultural dance and song! Many new dances have been added this year and we know that you will be dazzled by the talents of these young ladies! The tour this year will be from August to September 2007 and will include stops in Washington, DC, Columbia, MD, Evanston (Chicago), IL, Atlanta, New York City, West Orange, NJ, Denver & Boulder, CO, Salt Lake City, Murray, & St. George, UT, San Jose, Palo Alto, Ontario/Upland, and Los Angeles (San Fernando), CA.

The Mesgana Dancers are 11 girls, age 7-13, and are sponsored students in the COEEF program in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Our heartfelt thanks go to Ethiopian Airlines for providing transportation for the girls to travel from Ethiopia to the United States!
