PopCult Anime Con @ Sheraton Framingham
Aug 19 all-day

Odaiko New England is happy to return to the PopCult Anime Convention in Framingham. We loved sharing Japanese drumming (or taiko) at the convention last year and look forward to doing it again this year.  We will be giving both a lecture/demonstration and a workshop for those inclined to give taiko a try. 

Registration with the convention is required to attend both the lecture and workshop.
