RETURNING TO RIVER PARK IN 2026
What to bring? An instrument, a chair, a friend.
No matter your experience or comfort level with drumming, dance, or art, these gatherings offer an opportunity to appreciate, activate, and expand. All are welcome!
The Living Arts Collective is an organization dedicated to artistic expression, embodied movement, dance, education, healing arts, and building community. Whether in their a co-creative studio space in Durham or at Last Fridays in Hillsborough, LAC holds an open space for voices of all ages, races, religions, genders, cultural backgrounds, shapes, sexual orientations, and educational backgrounds to be heard.
LAC experiences are brought to Last Fridays and YOU through collaboration between the Hillsborough Arts Council, the Living Arts Collective, and Drumming for Wellness NC, and community supporters.
