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. Above, Drury
works with students at the Turtle School. All
