Join Gambian drummer Seneke Sillah for a fun African drumming workshop for families - a great way for children to learn new creative skills and learn about African culture with their parent/carer.

The family drumming workshop will be followed by a drum circle for adults. Participants will learn about the history and cultural context of the West African djembe drum; learn djembe technique, as well as call and response and basic rhythms.

The session is suitable for beginners and more experienced drummers alike.

Seneke Sillah is the lead musician of East London-based Mbilla Arts which promotes storytelling through African music and dance.
