A sistrum is a hand-held percussion instrument that originated in ancient Egypt and was often played by priestesses in honor of Isis.  They have been found in south-central Iraq, Georgia, Greece and are still used in western parts of Africa.  Join museum educator Alice Vogler to learn more about  sistrums and make your very own sistrum-inspired instrument.

For ages 8-12.
