Goodnight little Tokyo!
Water can flow or water can crash. Be like water.
—Bruce Lee by way of Allan Aquino (sorry to Narinda and Vicky for my lack of kung fu quote knowledge)
I remember when Da Wen showed up. It was right when I was starting to get more involved with TNC.
It’s crazy to think how much life happens in 3 years.
Johneric, Shin, Ant, and Dawen setting up. You have no idea how much talent is on this stage…just to set up.
One of the many things I love about TNC is that we aren’t about numbers…we have no grant quota we need to make for attendance.
What we ARE about, however, is sharing the community, the art, and the stories. If we can share it with 10? Amazing. If we can share it with 10,000? Even better.
Come and share with us!

This guy has one of those voices you want to drive in the rain to.
This poem keeps wanting to remind me that we keep looking for people at the corner of awareness and empathy
