ABOUT THE EVENT: Paper Percussion Jam
Join us for this Paper Percussion jam where we transform paper jams into something fun!
Allie will lead the group through a paper percussion excursion that will have you grooving by the end of the night on the world’s most versatile office supply – paper.
We encourage you to bring some of your holiday wrapping paper leftovers or scraps to help build out this paper percussion orchestra. Pristine paper, crumpled paper, paper with little tape scraps or ribbons, printer paper, sticky notes, they’re all playable!
Paper will also be provided for this purposeful paper jam.
Cost: $15
Limited to 20 participants – Open to all genders. Age 16+ (ages 12-15 if accompanied by a parent).
No experience necessary.

She’s since played in jazz, classical, concert, and orchestral groups with performances in cities as far spread as Duluth, MN to San Antonio, TX.
Allie currently performs with drumHeart in the Twin Cities, teaches Corrective Movement for Percussionists, and leads Girl Scout workshops at the Women’s Drum Center. She designs classes with energy, education, ergonomics, and engagement in mind to ensure you’ll leave feeling invigorated by the power of drumming together.
