Come see what we’ve been working on. Join us as we get in the holiday spirit as only we know how–with lots of taiko! The Fundamentals class will be performing a brand new song, the Styles class will be demonstrating the power of taiko and the members have fun ways to show how we learn and explore the art of taiko.
Suggested donation of $10 at the door. Bake sale and light reception to follow.
