Hello Zimfest community,
Here’s hoping that you, like me, are breathing a huge sigh of relief and looking forward to a rosier 2021!
Monday November 9th is the last day to register for the final set of Zimfest Online presentation recordings. If you haven’t taken advantage of our online offerings, take a break from election news and politics in the next two days to learn a bit more about Zimbabwean music and story-telling! Don’t forget to send us feedback on any presentations you attend by completing the online evaluation form (write us at online{at}zimfest{dot}org if you need help).
The Zimfest Online Engagement Task Force will be taking a short break before pondering what form Zimfest might take in 2021 as the COVID pandemic continues. If you have ideas for us, please write to online{at}zimfest{dot}org or the ZA Board at board{at}zimfest{dot}org.
Stay well, stay safe, take it easy!

(P.S. – have you seen the newest installment of our Zimfest is Family feature? It includes the newest member of the Zimfest community!)
Congratulations proud parents of baby Muparutsa! Such good news in the midst of the Covid pandemic. I loved seeing all the familiar faces in your “Zimfest is Family” feature. Just missing one: Claire, where is your picture??
Thanks to all of you for everything you do! And please all stay safe and wear your masks…
Maria, Thanks for the shout out! We conceived of the “Zimfest is Family” feature when we realized how many trustworthy Zimfest volunteers are multi-generational families. No one else in my widely-scattered family has ever volunteered for Zimfest, but my sister Janet Gross has made generous donations on a couple of occasions! You can see photos of me and the other recent organizers on the Thank you Zimfest 2020 Organizers page. Tatenda! Siyabonga!
