This experience will be the Park County Arts Council first of our new series of “Community Gatherings”. It is an interactive event for all ages and abilities. Participants will be taught simple rhythms on a variety of drums and percussion instruments. In a matter of minutes, the group will be playing simple polyrhythms, individual drum patterns that when played together, form a beautiful, complex, and cohesive whole. It’s an experience of group collaboration, harmony, and active listening, and a metaphor for successful community. The sound of many drums playing together is powerful and evocative. And the sense of unity and connection that grows between participants can be profound. Drumming reduces stress and generates feelings of relaxation and focus and it is total lighthearted fun!
