What are J.A.M. Sessions?
The FREE interactive J.A.M. Sessions are participatory activities, guided by 2010 Ford season artists.  We offer 11 Monday nights between May 24 and September 13 centered around movement and drumming. The “Move to the Beat” series, includes sessions in a wide range of dance styles including swing, hula, samba, Israeli and Mexican folk, and Korean traditional dance. The “Slam that Drum” series features taiko drumming, Afro-Peruvian, Afro-Cuban and Samba drumming.  A painting session, “Self Portrait a la Frida Kahlo,” is a bonus event.
