DICE Project making Bongos!

The Second Dice Project session was once again well attended!
This week we had a go at making bongo drums. It was also a good chance for people to meet up and chat, and get to know each other better. There were some very positive comments from

group members about the art/crafts.

Drumming a big HIT in Blackfield

The drumming event at Blackfield was a great success with Mums, Dads and Kids all taking part.

Kris transported us to a typical Village get together in Ghana, showing us the drumming, singing and dance moves!!! We were left with a fantastic sense of community and smiles all round.

Preparing for the Drum Event at Blackfield

We had a great morning yesterday at Blackfield Neighbourhood Centre near Fawley, making drums (big and small), in preparation of our African Drumming workshop this coming saturday.

26 kids came along and painted the big drums as well as making small ones, accompanied by 6 parent helpers.

DICE Group a Great Success!

The First DICE group was a great success with 16 people attending. Our first Art project involved making brightly coloured drinks coasters from matchsticks! Everyone had a great time and we met a lot of new people. As well as the art activity we had board games, computer sessions with Adam, and guitars to strum on.

Sessions are based in the 'Boyatt' room at the Wells Place centre in Eastleigh.

DICE project starting on February the 18th

Here is the flyer, designed by project co-ordinator, Adam Williams.
