Makoto Taiko is honored to perform at the Manzanar Baseball Project Grand Opening Doubleheader, a special day of baseball, community, history, and remembrance at Manzanar National Historic Site.
Presented by Great Leap in collaboration with Manzanar National Historic Site, the event brings Japanese American history to life through a historical baseball doubleheader played on Manzanar’s restored ballfield. The project honors the Japanese Americans who, despite the injustice of wartime incarceration, found joy, connection, and resilience through the game of baseball.
Makoto Taiko is proud to be part of this meaningful gathering, sharing the spirit and energy of taiko as the community comes together to honor the past, celebrate resilience, and carry these stories forward.
