Performers from the famed Shaolin School in Henan Province, China, will present a martial arts and musical show at the University of Idaho in Boise at 7 p.m. Friday, Jan. 20, in the Centennial High School Performing Arts Center.

This event is sponsored by the Confucius Institute Headquarters in Beijing and co-hosted by the University of Idaho Confucius Institute and the UI College of Letters, Arts and Social Sciences. 

World-renowned martial arts masters of the Shaolin Kung Fu Mission will come to the Treasure Valley and use bare-handed and weapon styles to showcase the ancient art of Shaolin Kung Fu, China’s oldest form of martial arts.
