Overview
Facilitated by the Harbourfront Centre School Visits team, this art-making activity invites families and groups to create a musical instrument using simple materials and collaging techniques. Participants can consider the following questions: How can we use colour, shape and texture to create a personal musical instrument? Participants will design and build their tambourines using a paper plate as a base. They will decorate their tambourines utilizing a variety of materials and collaging techniques. Be sure to play with your tambourine throughout the day and be sure to dance with it in the festival parade!
