Please join Taiko Master Seiichi Tanaka, Denver Taiko, Taiko with Toni, and Boulder Taiko HIBIKI on Pearl Street this coming Sunday the 22nd to share in the joy of taiko.

Unfortunately, due to the recent flooding in Boulder County in Colorado, TSC Fundraiser in the Millennium Harvest House has been canceled. Instead, we will be performing at Pearl Street Mall raising money for people who have been affected by the floods.

This is one small effort to help many people who will have great need in the coming weeks and months to rebuild their lives, their homes and their community. All money donated will be given to local organizations directly in touch with those affected by the flood, and it will be posted where the money go.

This will be a great opportunity to see Taiko Master Seiichi Tanaka perform, and support a good cause. We would greatly appreciate your presence and support.
