Give NAGA a Hand

NAGA’s new project for 2015 “The Guqin and Its Culture – a commemoration of the 1945 Library of Congress recordings of guqin master Zha Fuxi and related activities” has been widely recognized and is receiving grants and honors from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Library of Congress, the American Folklife Center, and the Alliance for California Traditional Arts. However we need to raise an additional $10,000 to match the National Endowment for the Arts $10,000 grant to make this concert come to fruition.
