Tuesday August 15th @ 11am in the Clubhouse
Join us for a special cultural presentation! Drums are a very essential member of the percussion group of musical instruments. They are normally played by beating with the hand, or with one or two sticks. Drums are used for music, self-expression, entertainment and for evoking happiness. However, there’s more to drums, especially within African culture and tradition. African drums have a unique and more profound symbolic meaning when compared with western music. Traditionally, these drums represent the soul of the community they’re found in. They are used for celebrating ceremonial events and rituals within the community. They are also employed as tourist attractions in various African countries, promoting and exhibiting African heritage and culture. For more information, please see Joe T.
