I'm down with a major case of pneumonia, which, I'm told will last at least two more weeks, but I wanted to tell you about an amaising event Saturday, here in Lexington. It was a performance of the Jiou-Tian Folk Drums and Arts Troupe, in honor of the Tiawanese-American Heritage Week, starting on Mother's Day. It was held on the University of Kentucky campus. The troupe will be on tour for approximately 6 months here in the US.

The show consisted of 6 acts, preceeded by an explanation of the theme of the performance. It was loud, funny and a real reflection of a culture we could all benefit knowing more about.


If you get a chance, catch it! It's fantastic!
