Iaido, or Iaijutsu is the art of drawing the Japanese sword. It was one of the Japanese martial disciplines paramount in the education of the classical warrior (samurai). Join us on May 4 as Emily Egan Sensei of Clear Lake Iaido (Muso Jikiden Eishin Ryu), and Ash Welborn (Shin Shin Ryu Iaijutsu) demonstrate some of their different schools' unique styles as the Evelyn Meador Library celebrates Asian American History Month! The demonstration will start in the meeting room at 1pm.

But have we had yours?

If you have a collection you would like to share with the world why not put it in our display case and get the satisfaction of seeing others admire your creativity and enthusiasm?

Mr. Fletcher rendered a fine performance of classical guitar music for us this past Tuesday.  He shared music from all across the guitar repertoire, playing compositions by Bach, Albeniz, Paganini, Ravel, Myers and others.

We had a great turnout for the concert and everyone was enthusiastic and appreciative.


Thanks to our Friends Board for making this concert available to the public, and thanks to Mr. Fletcher for sharing your love of the guitar with us!
