Come light up the night with food, fire and music from all over the world with Somerville Art Council’s “Ignite! Global Street Food and Fire Festival.” Odaiko New England will be performing twice during the night, times TBD. With roving performers, crafts and games, food vendors, and stage performances from cultures all over the world, it is an event sure to be a feast of sights, sounds and actual food.
The event is free, but the Somerville Arts Council has a suggested donation of $1.
Rain date: Sunday, August 14 from 6-10pm.
Come and enjoy a night of thunderous drumming and see what our students and members have been working on. Suggested donation $5.
Oshogatsu, a festival welcoming the New Year, is one of Japan’s most important annual festivals. Join us at the Children’s Museum to celebrate 2017, the Year of the Rooster. Following our performance will be a shi-shi-mai (lion dance) and parade with taiko accompaniment.
今年もよろしくおねがいします
The performance is free with admission to the museum. Performance times are 12:00-12:20 PM and 2:15-2:35 PM. For more information, please visit The Boston Children’s Museum event calendar.
There will be no regular taiko classes.
