Volunteer Appreciation Night

Ro Ho En has the BEST volunteers!. Kudos to all who are an active part of the Garden...without you, it could not be done! We hope you enjoyed the evening as our guests and look forward to seeing you all in the future. We welcome everyone to become a part of our family (contact the office).

Taiko Explosion

Taiko EXPLOSION was awesome! The crowd was amazed and enjoyed the excitement as the tempo grew throughout the evening. An enchanting performance by the Arizona Gakuen School Choir was the perfect start leading to very powerful taiko drumming by Fushicho Daiko. Bidding goodbye to our esteemed "Queen of Taiko" was difficult but the evening was a fitting departure for Esther Vandecar. We will miss you, dear friend!

First Friday

Our last First Friday of the season was quite warm but that did not stop anyone from taking a stroll! (Who let that wolf in anyway?!) Thanks to all who came by to feed the koi, drink in the beauty, and simply relax in the peaceful serenity of the Garden. We are open until May 29, so please take a moment to stop by before then. See you on the path!
