Fred DeAsis gave a Kut-kut
Fred DeAsis gave a Kut-kut demonstration and training session for the Skokie Public Library's "Visit the Philippines" program held in April of this year. Young and old alike were captivated by Fred, his enthusiasm, and his extraordinary work.
Members of the Reference staff at the Library searched for more information on Kut-Kut technique for you and this is what they found.
