Native Drums

As I was exploring the Internet trying to learn more about Native culture(s), I came across an exciting website developed with the help of Carlton University.  Although there are many websites claiming to promote Native art and culture, many of them really only want to sell something. Not this one! This site contains a wealth of knowledge and information, respectfully put together through the use of technology to educate and entertain!

The website introduction says it all:

“Welcome to Native Drums, an exciting and innovative website devoted to the rich heritage of First Nations culture and music in Canada.

With games, videos, and moving image galleries for Kids, in-depth interviews and articles for students, the image research database for scholars, and downloadable resource kits for teachers, Native Drums has something for everyone!”

There is also a companion website devoted to Native Dance.
