Haru Matsuri- Spring Festival 2020
Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre
Sunday March 1st, 2020 1-3PM
Come join JETAA Toronto and experience the JCCC’s annual spring festival! We will be meeting in the lobby of the JCCC at 1pm and checking out the festival for the afternoon.
As always, the JCCC and Kobayashi Hall will be colourfully and elaborately decorated to welcome spring’s arrival. Festival guests entering the JCCC will be greeted by an elaborate display of Hina Matsuri Dolls.
Haru Matsuri will feature an array of demonstrations by instructors of Japanese arts and crafts such as Ikebana (flower arranging), Bunka Shishu (embroidery), Sumi-e (brush painting), and Cha-no-yu (Tea Ceremony). The JCCC offers classes in all of these areas and you can sign up for Spring programmes after trying each one. In addition, there will be many vendor booths selling a wide variety of products.
The JCCC’s martial artists will demonstrate the techniques of “The Way of the Warrior” through Aikido, Judo, Karate, Iaido, Naginata, Kyudo, Jodo and Kendo.
For entertainment, there will be odori (traditional Japanese dancing), taiko (Japanese drumming) and you can also enjoy the “tranquil” moments of a tea ceremony demonstration. Delicious Japanese cuisine will also be available in the food court.
