Come explore the arts!
Join local artists Susan and Cindy Ogwal (Co-Founder of the C-U Black & African Arts Festival) for a workshop on the art of African drumming! Drums play an important role in every aspect of African life, including the physical, emotional, and spiritual. African hand drums are played to communicate, celebrate, mourn, and inspire. In this workshop, you will create an African drum and learn the history and different types of drums played throughout the many countries in Africa. Dress comfortably and get ready to test out new performance skills!
