2005-2006 Annual Benefit
Many Gifts...Some of
Which Are Hidden
|
|
Friends of Cleveland School of the Arts
produced our annual benefit on May 25, 2006. The event, "Many Gifts...
Some of Which are Hidden" Proved to be a riveting and powerful
performance. Featuring international composer and Taiko Drum master
Eitetsu Hayashi, Many Gifts was a breathtaking fusion of Japanese and
American culture, a true collaborative effort.
Highlighted by a magical lighting storm
outside of Trinity Cathedral, guest were treated to a production
featuring students from the CSA performing and visual arts
departments. Many Gifts was a once in a lifetime event. It would not
have been possible without the tireless efforts of the Ohio Arts
Council and Sally Winters, Arts Midwest, the Japan American Society of
Northeast Ohio, Jing Lauengco, Diana Greenberg, and volunteers and
financial donors from surround community and Friends.

Year Celebration
" I want to thank you all for
introducing us to Eitetsu, Makoto and Shuichiro. Never in my life have I
ever had so much fun in school. Taiko drumming may have been painful at
first but I learned that hard work pays off. Taiko really touched my
heart, and I cried the night after it was all over. I just wanted to let
you know how much I appreciate what you did for us. Please send my thanks
to the Ohio Arts Council. Also if you ever communicate with Eitetsu again,
please tell him it was an honor to work with him. Thank you so much!"
