Learn to play the instruments and patterns that bring Puerto Rican Plena music to life. Traditional and recording artist Maurice "Tito" Sanabria (Kadencia Orchestra) will lead this hands-on percussion workshop. Participants will learn how to play the three hand drums used in Plena music known as "panderos" or "panderetas."

All skill levels are welcome and no prior experience is needed. Bring a "pandero" if you have one. Instruments will be available for participants that do not have a "pandero." The session is an effort to preserve and promote the practice of this traditional art while building community.
