Kofi Dennis, part of the duo Anansegromma, introduces young audiences to pattern and communication in drumming. Participants learn to speak through music in an interactive “drum circle,” and then explore the museum’s galleries to look for the “beat” in African art. Drums are provided, but drums from home are welcome. Recommended for ages 5–10. Reservations required. Call 202.633.8700.
