Join us every first Saturday of the month at The Sanctuary – Jubilee Community Center for a joyful and inclusive Community Drum Circle. This is a welcoming space where people of all ages and musical abilities can come together to create unified rhythms, connect with others, and celebrate community through music.
Whether you stay for the full session or drop in for a while, you’ll be part of something uplifting and energizing. No musical experience is needed—just bring your curiosity and spirit.
We’ll have some extra drums, sticks, and shakers available, but feel free to bring your own percussion instruments (sticks, shakers, small boxes, plastic bowls, or simply your hands!).
Hosted by Timikel Blakey Sharpe, Drum Circle Coordinator – Vision Mission Home LLC
