In the recent years the massive earthquakes in Christchurch and in East Japan caused great loss of life and extensive damage, because of this tragedy Christchurch and Japan have a shared understanding for the difficulties of surviving such an event and living through the recovery process. We plan to bring positive spirit by celebrating The Japanese Society of Canterbury's 20th anniversary.
Performances include:
- Japanese drums "takumi"
- Canterbury Japanese Choir
- K-on
- Woolston Brass
- Kimono fashion show
- Anime cosplay competition
- Japanese calligraphy demonstration
- Ikebana demonstration
- Rice cake pounding demonstration
- Japanese festival stall "yatai"
- Japanese culture displays and more!
Showcasing the Japanese community’s local presence, we contemplate establishing a regular future event, to be known as Canterbury Japan Day, that will be on a hitherto unseen scale. Hope to see you there!
皆様のお越しをお待ちしています!!
