Learn to construct a traditional style frame drum! Each participant will start with raw materials.

On day one, they will cut, glue, sand and assemble a 10 segment frame with basswood responsibly sourced and milled from the grounds of the Avon Hills Folk School.

The second day we will cut, stretch and lace a natural elk rawhide head on the frame while learning how to maintain and care for your new drum. Students will then bring their drum home to dry.
