The Lebeha Drumming Center in the Garifuna village of Hopkins, Belize, on the Caribbean coast, keeps the culture alive for generations of students since their founding in 2002 by Dorothy Petterson and Jabbar Lambey. Some of the first generation musicians have gone on to international professional careers.
