Sounds of Celtic drumming circle fill the air on Mannin

The Manx hills were filled with the sound of drumming at sunset yesterday. A Celtic drumming circle was created, like the ones our ancestors used at significant gatherings, including the celebrations of equinoxes in the times of our pre-Christian past and carrying on into the Christian period. In the build up to the event Drumming workshops have been held for young people as an Island of Culture event. The Isle of Man Arts Council has sponsored youth worker, Cathi Wareing, to lead a number of Celtic drumming workshops across the island this month.
