Lion dance group from the 80s

The founder, Sunny, created the troupe with his experience of lion dancing at a young age in Vietnam, as well as in lion dance groups in the U.S. With the creation of Buu Kim Tu was a means of keeping this culture and heritage present for generations to come in the Bay Area.
