Odaiko New England is very pleased to help celebrate the City of Newport’s weekend-long Black Ships Festival. This year catch our performances through out the day in Touro Park at 1pm, 2pm and 3pm. The festival celebrates the signing of the Treaty of Kanagawa, which opened the Japanese ports of Shimoda and Hakodate to United States trade. The “Black Ships,” or “Kurofune,” refers to the Japanese term for foreign ships.
Shimoda is now Newport’s sister city and also celebrates this festival.
Odaiko New England brings taiko to Cambridge as part of the Summer in the City arts series. This free event brings music, dance, storytelling, theater, puppetry, movies and more to parks all over Cambridge. Summer in the City is supported by the City of Cambridge and Cambridge Community Foundation (CCF). Join us at 10am on Thursday, July 19th.
