?Circle Back with Angie Mack!
Ozaukee Talent Pop-Up Drum Circle
Community drumming is one of the most ancient and universal activities known to humankind! Angie Mack, founder of Ozaukee Talent, has been bringing diverse groups of people together through music for most of her life. She loves the inclusivity and versatility of drumming and encourages all ages and skill levels to participate! Bring your own percussion instrument to "the circle" or experiment with making sounds with those "on hand".
This improvisational and non-verbal activity will be amazing with YOU in it!
Feel free to "jump into the circle" for as little or as long as you like!
