Michelle Meister and Luke Martinez love making drums, Rattles and Sacred Art.
When they began their business, they were homeless, living in and working from a van. Michelle says, “It’s what got me off the streets”.
After working from home for many years, they opened a workshop and retail space last September. Michelle has plans to resume her career in teaching ancient skills very soon.
