Drum blanks were donated and RAA facilitated the decorating of them at COA's Skyline Music opening event July 9th.
The Riverwest Artists Association will be there every Tuesday night with an art activity booth. If I had a Hammer has sponsored the building of wooden drum kits and we are hoping that the kids will help us make a bunch of them July 9th to play with Del La Buena! Afterwards all the drums will be donated to COA. So come out and have some fun with us!

June 21 despite thunderstorms and pouring rain The Riverwest Artists Association held a community building carpentry workshop for parents/ guardians and children. All those who braved the weather built their own Free Little Libraries to be proudly displayed in their yards and community gardens.
All the wood for the project was donated by the Koller Family, the prefabricating of the kits and design was donated by Felisha Wild of Our Daily Salt, and the hardware was generously donated by Eli Bliffert of Bliffert Lumber. Carpenters who donated their skills onsite were Mark Lawson, Erico Ortiz, Jonathan Gorton and Felisha Wild. Other helpers included a mission group from Mount Zion Lutheran Church, Minnesota.
The brainchild of Dr. Theresa Anne Kenney, Associate Professor Concordia University and board member of the Riverwest Artist Association (RAA), the community building - carpentry workshop, "If I Had A Hammer" is intended to nurture confidence, curiosity and creativity all the while advancing the cause of literacy throughout central city neighborhoods." If I had a Hammer " is part of an ongoing series of community programming sponsored by the Riverwest Artists Association.
You can find a free library soon in front of the Jazz Gallery where you can donate or take a free book.
