    Extractions: Drew University is pleased to offer a unique summer study program that allows a firsthand exploration of the culture, traditions, and arts of West Africa. Since 1984, several hundred students have benefitted from Drew in West Africa, taking courses in African studies, art, and art history. Students are introduced to the ways in which art reflects the social, economic, and cultural changes taking place in modern Africa. We invite you to join us for an extraordinary summer one that will leave you excited by Africa and touched by its customs and people. The Program Mali is an extraordinary country, extending from the savannah to the edge of the Sahara, with thousands of miles of extraordinary landscapes, ranging from the Dogon cliffs to the scenic Niger River Delta. Mali still contains many vestiges of the period when it was the center of great medieval empires. The program begins in the capital city of Bamako with a general orientation and introduction to the art and culture of contemporary Mali and to the cultures of its many peoples, particularly the Bamana, Dogon, and Tuareg. The group then travels to interior regions, visiting villages where traditional life remains vigorous. Throughout, particular attention is given to local art and its relationship to the culture producing it. In addition, emphasis is placed on discussions with Malians.

    Extractions: View a Dogon Photo Gallery by Chris Rainier: Go >> Hidden in the mysterious Bandiagara Cliffs of southern Mali, West Africa, live a people who claim to be the conduit between heaven and Earth: the people of the Dogon. The Dogon have survived for centuries, withstanding constant slave raiding parties of the successive empires of Ghana, the Sonrai, the Mossi, the Sao, the Fulani, and the Muslims from the north. Consequently, the Dogon have evolved a keen sense of cultural preservation and an ability to withstand outside forces of change. Today, some 300,000 Dogon live along a roughly 125-mile-long (200-kilometer) swath of land against the Badiagara Cliffs. Many live among 700 or so small villages with populations of less than 500. I recently traveled into the region in my capacity as National Geographic Cultures Initiative photographer. I was joined by my friend and colleague Wade Davis, an author, anthropologist, botanical explorer, and National Geographic Society Explorer-in Residence; a film crew from National Geographic Today;
