Drum Circle Workshop with Dave Curry

It is well established that hand drumming has a number of benefits for physical and mental wellness.  For individuals, drumming can be a form of relaxation and stress reduction, but in a group, drumming can also be a wonderful form of social connection.  In this introductory workshop from Dave Curry, we'll talk about the ways to get a good sound out of a hand drum, how to play basic rhythms, and how to work together with other drummers to have the feeling of being part of a harmonious group.  No prior experience is necessary and people of ages from 8 to 80 are invited to participate (young children should have adult supervision).  Drums will be provided so all you need to do is show up and have fun!

Registration Required.
