J-CULTURE ZONE

 

The J Culture Area this year will be home to a wide variety of attractions! There will be culture talks from Japanese Culture expert Akemi Solloway (www.akemisolloway.com ) , the daughter of an old samurai family. These will include the chance to try on a kimono and learn about the garment’s origin, and to take part in a traditional, fifteenth century tea ceremony!

 

That's not all - the origami section shall cater to attendees of all abilities will be present, allowing you to learn the traditional art of folding paper and take home their works of art. There will also be the opportunity to try out and taste a range of traditional snacks and sweets from Japan, ranging from wasabi peas to edamame beans and of course Pocky!

 

Other activities available will include a calligraphy area, where you will be able to learn how to write your name in Japanese using traditional ink and brushes. There will also be a number of stage events involving the audience, so stay tuned for more announcements from this area.
