Join us for a fun and interactive evening of drumming at Fairfield Community Place. This free workshop is open to everyone, including complete beginners and people who have never played music before. No previous drumming experience is required, and drums are provided for all participants. The rhythms are easy to learn, the drums are provided, and within minutes you'll be making music as part of the group. During the workshop, you'll learn a variety of rhythm patterns, explore basic drumming techniques, and experience the enjoyment of playing music together in a welcoming and supportive environment.
Community drumming is a simple and enjoyable way to connect with music and with others. If you've ever been curious about drumming, this is a great opportunity to give it a try.
Come on your own, bring a friend, or bring the whole family. Everyone is welcome.
