October 21 saw the first African Drum Repair Day, generously supported by City of Belleville, and held at the beautiful Fish & Game Club.
Participants learned to disassemble djembe drums, attach a new skin, and re-string.
Participants learned to put a patch on a tear in a drum skin.
We also attached a skin to a giant barrel drum, requiring stitching through thick rawhide.
Stay tuned for more Drum Repair Days to come in future!
