    First Congregational Church  Montclair, NJ  $7, including refreshments.
   
Can all the members of a large group communicate with each other simultaneously and have a joyous time doing it? According to Richard Reiter, that's the purpose of the "Spiritual Drumming" workshop he has led since September, 1999,  sponsored by Montclair's Outpost in the Burbs.   The response continues to be so positive that the Outpost has scheduled four more Sunday sessions from 3:00 – 5:00 p.m.: April 26,  June 21, July 19, August 30.
Adults and mature teenagers are invited. The Outpost is a nonprofit, interfaith, adult community outreach organization that sponsors many concerts and community service activities. The workshop meets at the First Congregational Church.

Participatory workshop (NOT a performance).
