It's a Hoe-Down!

Friday, July 15, 2011 - 3:00pm - 4:00pm

 

Join Lynn Marcks from the nIc Foundation for storytelling through musical sounds and words.  Make your own homemade musical instruments including drums and mallets; shakers; guiros; and wind pipes. Experiment with rhythmic patterns using washboards, bottles, jugs, flower pots, and wooden spoons. Add brushes, brooms, and mallets for interesting sounds. Play and sing along with Mrs. Marcks on the banjo, guitar, and autoharp to generational songs like “Skip to My Lou”, “Oh, Susanna”, “Bill Grogan’s Goat”, and “Polly-Wolly Doddle.”  Come join the musical Hoe-Down of fun!
