Detail:

The gaida is an instrument that is used by all European nations. It's composed from the following parts: gaidunitsa, ruchilo,... As our very name states, the purpose of our Association is to cherish and present the cultural traditions of Bosnia and Herzegovina through a variety of artistic expressions, such as: folk dance, instrumental and vocal music, poetry, drama, film, painting, sculpture, handicrafts, etc. During the Bosnian war (from 1992 to 1995) and shortly thereafter, some 7,000 Bosnian refugees settled in the greater Seattle metropolitan area.
