IN PICTURES: Foyle Obon Christmas Community Event

Foyle Obon, a pioneering Japanese Arts organisation, based at the Playtrail, Racecourse Road, Derry, held their community Christmas concert last weekend at Lisneal College.

On the night they was a selection of taiko drumming, home-made Japanese food and their legendary Christmas quiz!
