A Gift to the Community
If you’re not already a member, we hope you will consider joining during this season’s membership drive. TCA has provided many free and low cost opportunities for taiko players, all thanks to the support of TCA Members.
Resources, songs, taiko group directory, census data, & event calendar all at TaikoSource.org
Paid opportunities to teach, play, or perform taiko in all of our programming
Subscription to the e-newsletter, the TCA Beat, that engages and uplifts the taiko community
And of course, the North American Taiko Conference (NATC) would not be possible without the support from our membership also!
Not interested in membership, but still want to support TCA? Make a donation! Volunteer! Share your compositions on Taiko Source. There are so many ways to give and get involved.
