Home News Tales from the foot of the Baobab

Tales from the foot of the Baobab


The baobab is perhaps the world’s most ancient living thing, reaching up to 6,000 years old. A tree that has witnessed times immemorial, and is the guardian of all its stories. So what tales would we like to tell it? What stories would we want it to store for future generations? Grupo Contrafilé and Campus in Camps invite you to sit in on some storytelling and discussion at the foot of the baobab, part of #31Bienal’s Mujawara da Árvore-Escola (Mujawara – in Arab, ‘neighbourliness’– of the Tree-School).
