On Sunday Jeff Holland, founder of Drum4Work.com, held an event in Falls Park. Jeff’s website says the events “motivate people with the rhythm of life”. I have to agree and I recommend local readers make an effort to catch a future community drumming event. It was so much fun I have included several extra photos.

I wish I could have been there! I love drums and other percussion instruments! My favorite band here is a 10-member band with 8 of them playing percussions. The event looks like so much fun!
Cool! Wish I’d known about it. Could people bring their own drums and drum along?
Marsha, I understand the community drumming festival is an ongoing event held the last Sunday of each month. During the Summer the events are held in Falls Park. During the Winter, starting next month, events move indoors. You can send an email to jeff@drum4work.com to find out detail of where the Winter events will be held.
It is my understanding that everyone is welcome to join in. You can bring your own percussion instrument or dance or use “body percussion” (i.e. clap). While we were there, this last weekend, they had extra percussion instruments for those who did not bring their own.
Wow I don’t recall you linking that many thumbnails to one event :-) sure does look like fun.
I also like drums.
Thank you so much for taking these wonderful pictures of our festival in the park. What started as a way to bring our community together through drum and dance has grown to be more than I could have imagined in a short time. I’m excited to know that so many people are touched by what I love to do for a living. Every day should be a celebration of Life!
