Welcome

Maxwell Kofi Donkor is an internationally known, award-winning sculptor, master drummer and teacher.

Kofi has been drumming and performing for over thirty years. He directs African Drum and Dance Ensemble, Sankofa, which in the Twi language of his native Asante Kingdom in Ghana, means "going back to the roots". Sankofa has played with such nationally known drummers as Babatunde Olatunji, and his Drums of Passion, Mickey Hart, Sikiru and Camara. Kofi's performances generate the community spirit of sharing, onenes, joy, and love, where both audience members and performers are involved. His assemblies, lectures, performaces, drum circles, and traditional African Ananse (spider) stories promote diversity in different cultures, apart from African culture, in schools as well as the community, from conferences, to festivals.

Kofi has been involved in a number of arts in education programs which range from teaching special needs children to use potter's wheels, kilns, and woodworking tools, to elementary, secondary and university level school programs in the areas of African dance, sculpture, traditional Adinkra hand printing, drumming, drummaking, and storytelling.

Maxwell Kofi Donkor is the recepient of numerous awards for his sculptures and residencies, including 1985 Best Sculpture Award at the Gifex International Trade Fair in Ghana, West Africa, the 1999 Fellowship in Folk and Traditional Arts by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, and the 1994 "Gift of Time" Award from the American Family Association in Pennsylvania, to mention a few.
