Lao Music Program - Lao Heritage Foundation

Music Project

Following the success of the August 2007 pilot project, LHF currently runs ongoing music classes in Seattle, WA, with the goal of incorporating live music with the traditional dances of Kinnaly Troupe. In the summer of 2008, we collaborated with the Lao Community Center of Rhode Island in a similar program. We also held our second year of "summer camp" in Seattle, where we taught Lao music, dance, culture, and folklore. If you are a community leader interested in establishing a traditional Lao music program in your area, please contact us at info@laoheritagefoundation.org.
