ARTolerance Celebrates Ajibola Rivers

ARTolerance is thrilled to feature Ajibola Rivers in a series of school visits this fall season.  Ajibola will share ARTolerance’s mission as a cultural ambassador, bringing community voices to the stage in an educational setting. We look forward to working and sharing with students in Philadelphia and surrounding neighborhoods. Ajibola Jeremy Rivers is a Nigerian-Cherokee performing artist of many talents. While the vast majority of his music career has been on stage, music took on new meaning when he started teaching his first students in 2015.  ARTolerance is excited to promote the premiere of Ajibola River’s Cello Suites, inspired by Bach while introducing Latin & African rhythms.  Ajibola teaches violin, viola, cello, bass, and bass guitar.
