Join us for the launch of our Kantan CHamoru Children's Book Series! 

These books reintroduce long beloved songs to young readers, but they also introduce them to new musical voices who are carrying on the tradition. The Kantan CHamoru book series celebrates the musical tradition in CHamoru culture. The lyrics in each poem or song reflect key values for the community, such as the importance of respecting elders, perpetuating cultural practices, and expressing pride in one’s heritage.”
