Join RADFest, hosted by Wellspring, for a Community Dance & Drumming Jam! This movement and music celebration welcomes everyone—whether you consider yourself a dancer or not—to explore movement through open improvisation scores with live music, or to simply observe and enjoy the magic of dancing and drumming. The session will feature movement facilitation by Carolyn Pampalone Rabbers and live music provided by The Druid Drummer.
Carolyn Pampalone Rabbers is the Executive Artistic Director and founder of CPR Dance: Inhale Movement in Southwest Michigan. She is an Instructional Assistant Professor at Texas A&M University, on faculty at Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp, and has taught at Grand Valley State University and Western Michigan University. She can be seen as ‘Abby’ in Moondance (2020) and has performed for Wellspring/Cori Terry & Dancers, Coldplay, Omi, Starbucks, and more.
An unorthodox solo percussion act from Kalamazoo, the Druid Drummer creates primal soundscapes that serve as self-expression and as a call to the audience’s own inner rhythm. His performances have been described as “the human spirit embodied as sound.”
