Drum Safari at Family Night: Aug. 12

Every Wednesday is Family Night — this week, we have partnered with theLenexa City Center Library to have a special outdoor performance on the Lower Commons in place of Storytime.

Due to extreme heat index, this special performance has been moved indoors in the Lenexa City Center Library's auditorium.

Drum Safari

During this high-energy, interactive performance, children are invited to join a musical “safari” where they meet different animals from all over the world each set to rhythm. After meeting the animals, each child is given a percussion instrument… and the jungle jam begins! As the rhythms of the animals lock together, an exciting sense of community begins to develop. This program includes interactive songs, dancing, and, of course, DRUMMING!
