This 2-foot community drum is handcrafted from sacred bison hide and a maplewood hoop, designed to be a vessel of shared rhythm and collective prayer. Its voice is deep, resonant, and unifying, calling people together in circle, ceremony, and celebration.

This drum was created in sisterhood, with prayers written along the inner hoop. Its inner hoop is adorned with sacred symbols: the mythical Thunderbird, guardian and bringer of power; the triple flame of power, wisdom, and love; a rose for beauty and devotion; a honeybee for community and sacred work; hearts for unity and compassion; and the Tree of Life, representing interconnection and the eternal cycle of creation.

This drum is more than an instrument, it is a community ally, carrying the voices of those who created it and amplifying the prayers of all who play it. Its resonant tones are meant to gather, unite, and uplift.
