On April 13 at the Morikami Museum, an entire class of teens from Western High School arrived with a check for $1,000, as a donation for the museum’s children’s programs. Teenagers aren’t that bad. Really.
The Morikami will kick-off its new “10,000 Turtles” initiative with a taiko drumming performance by Fushu Daiko as part of Asian Heritage Night at Roger Dean Stadium. For a suggestion donation of $1, a family can purchase the materials and instructions for creating an origami turtle.
A local family illustrates ways to continue loving the Morikami, in memorial, as they had a plaque for their late son included in the lobby of the museum, a place he loved.
Fushu Daiko excites Hatsume Fair audiences for the 20th time this weekend, as they take the stage at the Morikami Museum’s signature springtime festival. www.blogarchive.morikami.org
