HACKENSACK — The Kokoro Center for Music and the Performing Arts will present “Shaker Makers” on Saturday, Aug. 12, during the Northwoods Art and Book Festival in Hackensack.
“Shaker Makers” offers young festivalgoers a chance to craft and decorate their own shakers and tambourines.
Through this hands-on experience, young explorers will use their creativity and musical spirit to discover their artistic talents and explore music and rhythm, organizers reported.
Once the craft is complete, participants are then invited to “Shake Along with Wayne and the Boys” at 11:30 a.m. and 2 p.m.
The activity will be in the Children’s Area of the Northwoods Art and Book Festival.
For more information and festival updates, visit the Northwoods Arts Council website.
