Back by popular demand, on October 8, 2016, Grace Klein Community hosted their 2nd Bi-Annual Drum Circle, incorporating various businesses, churches, non-profits, families and individuals, with the goal of uniting individuals, no matter their age, gender, race, or belief system. Young or old, beginner, or experienced, ALL are always welcomed! The drum circle provides a fun and unique opportunity to experience a new culture, while learning how to play a variety of drums, and other percussion instruments.
A4One, an indoor training facility, once again, graciously opened their building as a space to host the event. They use athletics to carry the Gospel throughout every marginalized area of our city. His Hands Photographs and Massey Creative sponsored their time documenting the fun, eccentric, and often unnoticed, sweet moments of the event, and David Fallin Designs got his creative juices flowing, designing incredible promotional materials, helping advertise the event.
Other sponsors provided door prizes, event entertainment, loaned us tables and chairs, and/or drums and other musical instruments to make this event possible. Main organizations that assisted this event included:
- Grace Klein Construction, Inc.
