Welcome back friends!

Macalester Language Fair 2024.
Taking Japanese or Mandarin would be a great way to start your college career!

Narita-sensei is performing on the koto at 4pm this Sunday at the Como Park Obon Festival. Don't miss this special performance!

It's that time of year! We are preparing for the much-loved annual Obon Festival and we are so excited! And, we need your help to make it a success! Currently, we are seeking volunteers to help out at the event at any one of the following booths: Calligraphy, Yo-Yo Tsuri, Balloon Makers, Kingyo Sukui, Japanese Quiz, & Main Booth.

If interested, you'll need to attend our Mandatory Volunteer Orientation, which will be held virtually on Wednesday, August 7th at 6 pm. JASM members and non-members are welcome to volunteer (JASM members will be given priority, but if not a member, it's a great time to join!).

Register to volunteer here: https://mn-japan.org/event-5796431
