The Nippon Culture Day at UH Mānoa took place on October 25, 2024, offering an opportunity for students to immerse themselves in both traditional and modern Japanese culture. Attendees engaged in a variety of activities, such as calligraphy, playing hanafuda, drawing anime characters, crafting origami, learning the Okinawan culture and enjoying other traditional games and performances.
We would like to thank the sensei from EALL, students, and organizers who made this event a success! The booths, activities, and performances were engaging and fun. We appreciate all the attendees who took time to join us at the Campus Center Ballroom.
