Join us VIRTUALLY for our First Saturday Drum Circle. We'll pretend we're at The New Deal Cafe and connect rhythmically via Zoom. If you don't have a drum or percussion, look around your house for cool "found sounds!" Examples are empty water bottles, pots and pans, kitchen utensils, salt shakers, etc! And don't forget you also have body percussion - claps, taps, snaps and whaps! In these upside down times we must innovate to find ways to make music together.…
