Arts In The Parks Event

Ironflower drummers summer show

This afternoon show of traditional Korean drumming will showcase amateur and professional performers, often drumming side-by-side. The Summer Show will conclude with a workshop for audience members. Although Ensemble Jeng Yi will lead this project, the stars of the Summer Show will be the more than 30 amateur drummers from two community drum groups

Performing under the name “”The Ironflower Drummers””, this united group of performers is comprised of people of all ages and backgrounds, creating a truly multi-generational and multicultural performing ensemble. As teachers and mentors, the members of Ensemble Jeng Yi have played an important part in the development of these community and student performers. Ensemble Jeng Yi will join them on stage, creating a wonderful opportunity for students and teachers, professionals and amateurs, to be united in performance.

Lee Lifeson Art Park is located in the heart of Willowdale, steps from a vibrant strip of Yonge Street that has many Korean restaurants, cafes, and shops. Come enjoy performances in Korean drumming, learn some Korean rhythms, and then enjoy some Korean food and drink in the neighbourhood.
