Teaching artist Miriam Minkoff leads clients at Heritage Centers After School Program in a drum performance at the close of a fall residency
Miriam Minkoff is a percussionist in the ensemble No Word Spoken, a music group comprising individuals with autism and staff from Autistic Services, Inc. She began teaching Dance with individuals with disabilities at People Inc. in 1983. She soon discovered that both clients and staff were more inspired to move when they made their own music. She began drumming with everyone at work, developing into the percussion ensemble known as Beats Me. Check out a recording of the participants drumming here.
