PART 2: On June 4, 2024 I spent an afternoon at percussivearts Headquarters in Indianapolis. Joshua Simonds, executive director of PAS, invited me to see the rare Billy Gladstone kit, generously donated to the PAS Museum by David & Colette Wood. I played two solos in 3/4.

One of the things we love about our #Indianapolis HQ is partnering with our local arts community! Percussive Arts Society is proud to sponsor #StartwithArt2024 and invest in Indy Arts Council’s vision of #ACreativeLifeForAll. See you at the celebration!

Great turnout for Indy Arts Council #startwithart2024 #supportthearts #loveindy #indyarts
