Please describe the outcomes of your activity. What did you learn? What made you the most proud of the effort?

I learned that people, especially children love drums. I had no lack of volunteers to sit in and drum with us. I’m proud of how all kinds and all level skills of drummers were able to create one collective sound that other attendees wanted to dance to. It truly was a collaborative effort.

From your perspective, what would be a good next step for the neighborhood in building engagement and momentom?

I would love for them to continue drumming together, whether by classes or just setting a day aside to gather and jam together. All ages. The djembe doesn’t discriminate.
