Proud Sponsors of Japan Day
We’re pleased to announce that once again
The Japanese Shop will be supporting
Japan Day. Taking place at The Forum in
Northallerton,
North Yorkshire on Saturday 17th May,
Japan Day is a vibrant celebration of Japanese food,
art and culture. You’ll get the chance to taste some authentic Japanese street food, get dressed up in a real
kimono and drink fresh green tea. Next you can try your hand at the art of
origami, write a haiku poem and learn a little bit of the Japanese language. In case that’s not enough, there will also be martial arts and Japanese embroidery demonstrations. Guess how much it costs for all of this?
It’s FREE!!*
Featuring a Performance By Kimono World
In the evening there’ll be a performance from Japanese performing group
Kimono World. This visually stunning performance will take you on a tour though the seasons of Japan, with customary music played on Japanese instruments, a tea ceremony performance and a traditional dance. The show is rounded up with a special performance for martial arts enthusiasts and a show-stopping kimono catwalk, followed by a Japan-themed raffle.
