About this Event

Join us for our first Drum Circle and Dance Class at The Empty Corner, hosted by djembe performer Victoria Boateng and African dancer Asmina Turner! This hour-long event will be taking place on Monday, August 31st, at 6:30 PM, and everyone is invited; no experience is necessary!

We’ll be blending the two together, and individuals will choose and split between learning some African dance steps or some drumming rhythms in separate rooms for half an hour. Both groups will come together for the remaining half hour and combine the two!
