Bring to life your very own spirited instruments, guided by Kelli Marie.

Over 2 Wednesday evenings, you will be guided by Kelli Marie to create your very own rawhide rattle aka marakas, for joy, peace, journeying, sound/vibrational medicine, your musical pleasure & more.

Each instrument takes approximately 2 x half days to complete. Rattle completion from 2 to 6 hours, over the 2 evenings.

The first day we prepare, cut & set our components ready to cure & dry in shape over night.

The second day we 'dress' & personalise our instruments, bringing them into completion & ready to play immediately by the end of your workshop experience.

Classes will be held over 2 consecutive Wednesday evenings of the 14th + 21st 2025.

Please Note: Workshop space & materials are only asigned once student placement has been paid in full due to the high cost to purchase the quality components & need to prepare them in advance. Each rawhide needs to be prepared overnight (with some of these skins costing in excess of $250), therefore requires crafting in to their next phase of life within the 12 hour window. As a solo operator, these losses add up & are not sustainable, therefore there is NO refund policy for 'no shows' to workshop under any circumstances! Your understanding is deeply appreciated. Should something arise & you are unable to make it to your workshop, please reach out asap (no later than 48 hours prior to the ticketed start time) to discuss a possible credit/roll-over to attend a future workshop.
