Diversity Drum Circles
On Break
Admission is $15
The Manitoba Electrical Museum hosts the
drop-in Community Drum Circle.
The integrative community drum circle provides an opportunity to participate in a uniquely uplifting and energizing experience drumming with others.
Hear the beat of the drum as it calls to you and welcomes you to the circle. Feel the beat and join in the rhythms as you release yourself from the stresses and demands of the day and connect with yourself and a supportive community.
Their objective is for everyone to have fun, feel included and explore their own creativity while connecting with others doing the same.
Drums and percussion instruments included.
Pre-registration is required at their home page or DM them on their Facebook page.
