Hi All,

Okuda-san will be giving a hocchiku (jinashi shakuhachi) performance
at Vara Healing Arts on Sunday, August 6th at 7:00PM. Vara Healing
Arts, located in a converted church in El Cerrito, is a wonderful
space, perfect for Okuda's deeply evocative playing. Fine tea and
Japanese snacks will be served.

Tickets are $20

last summer at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley, CA.

thanks!
