Youth percussion workshop at the Turtle School

Over the course of six months, Millennium Artist Andrew Drury explored improvisational drumming with 300 residents of the Oneida community in Wisconsin, building on indigenous traditions of the drum as a communication and celebratory instrument. Recycled materials - bottles, cans, buckets, pots - replaced classic drum kits and ensured that the joy of the beat was available through workshops in local elementary schools, high schools, and recreational centers.
