In this hands-on all-day workshop, you will be supplied with the support and materials everything you need to make your very own medicine drum, accompanying mallet, and you will be guided through making offerings and asking proper permissions with the spirit of the tree (frame) and the spirit of the animal (hide) who's skin you'll be working with.With gratitude to life, we are so excited to host this workshop space for prayerfully crafting your own medicine drum that can be used as an instrument for personal and collective healing.
This workshop is open to all levels and traditions, no previous experience is required, however this is an intense day, so be sure to get rest the day before, and allow yourself time to integrate after the workshop.
A portion of all proceeds to this workshop go towards to support the efforts of the Black Hills Legal Fund towards the #landback reparations for the Lakota Nation.
