DRUMMING IN MAYO INTERCULTURAL ACTION
Mayo Intercultural Action (MIA) held drumming workshops every Monday night over the summer months at their centre during the summer months of June, July and August. The workshops were a huge success, and were thoroughly enjoyed by everyone who attended. A wide range of cultures and nationalities participated in the workshops and there was great sharing, learning and fun had by all.
