Create Your Own African Shaker!
Using dried gourds and colorful designs, we will make shekeres (shakers) and use them in playing a variety of rhythms. We will work individually and collaboratively to experiment with sound while also learning about shekeres in the Shona culture specific to Zimbabwe.
Madison Children’s Museum’s drop-in programs are FREE for members or FREE with museum general admission. No pre-registration is needed.
You may buy general admission tickets at the front desk, or save time and order them online. Tickets are good for visitation on any day the museum is open to the public and never expire.
