Program Description

Event Details

Grades 1-5

Celebrate Black History Month and set sail on a musical adventure!  Discover how African-American whalers shaped the songs of the sea and inspired rhythms that became jazz and hip hop.  Then use shells to make your own African-inspired sistrum-a traditional shaker- to take the beat home!

Program presented by Cold Spring Harbor Whaling Museum.
