2023 Summer Festival
2023/9/21





On Saturday, August 19 2023, the Consular Office of Japan in Anchorage and the Japanese Association of Alaska co-hosted a summer festival at the Moose Lodge in Anchorage.
Participants enjoyed the Japanese tradition of Bon Dance, radio TAISO (Calisthenics), and Japanese martial arts KENDO demonstration as well as experiencing the Taiko Drum.
Due to the Covid19, the scale of this year’s festival was reduced, but we would like to continue Summer Festival, in cooperation with the Japanese Association of Alaska in the future.
