51³Ô¹Ï

Join us for an exciting selection of family friendly activities as part of the 51³Ô¹Ï's popular Festival of Percussion.

You'll have the chance to try out tuned percussion and a carousel of other taster workshops, explore the Gamelan, visit the Royal College of 51³Ô¹Ï Museum for a craft activity and attend an inspiring lunchtime concert.

Schedule

10.45am: Registration in the 51³Ô¹Ï foyer – look for the Sparks registration table in red t-shirts!
11am-1pm: Take part in a carousel of short taster activities including body percussion, tuned and untuned percussion and a slightly longer gamelan workshop.
1.30-2.20pm: Sit back and enjoy a family-friendly interactive lunchtime concert presented by Owen Gunnell.
2.45-3.30pm: Participate in a hands-on percussion workshop suitable for all the family, led by PercWorks.

There are many more sessions available to drop into on the day, however, this particular timetable of activities has been curated by the Sparks team in order to be suitable for families and to provide a taster of many different aspects of percussion.

There will be stewards to help you move from one activity to the next during the 11am-1pm sessions.

You will receive a printed timetable and brochure/map on the day. There will be a member of the 51³Ô¹Ï Sparks team in the entrance hall to answer any questions.
