Warasa Garifuna Drum School is a cultural and educational landmark situated in the historic Saint Vincent Garifuna land on the edge of Punta Gorda town. Our traditional thatch museum and school, created from traditional materials only in the local historic style, and decorated with Garifuna cultural artefacts from the past 100yrs and also modern paintings and handicrafts, is a living museum. Guests may look around around at items on display, or choose a more hands-on way to experience the rich history and heritage of the Garifuna through an interactive lesson or performance in traditional drumming, dancing or drum-making for individuals or groups. Warasa also welcomes local Belizean school groups to this authentic educational site.
