Fwd: Raleigh International Festival: Japan booth

[John Mertz]

FYI.  Forward, from Joe R.     With apologies for cross-listing. --- JPM

[略] this weekend (09/19 - 09/21) is the annual Raleigh International Festival.

It's in downtown Raleigh at the convention center.

Address is 500 S Salisbury St, Raleigh, NC 27601.

The festival will be open from 4:30 on Friday and will end at 7 PM on Sunday.

There will be many different ethnic/cultural groups at the convention and I will be helping to run the Japanese booth. Our group, the Nippon Club of the Triangle, will also have a cafe where you can buy yakisoba, mugicha, macha-ice cream and so forth.

We'll also be performing taiko music and teaching/demonstrating Bonodori.

I encourage you and the others (in our class and your other classes) to come and join us. They can even practice their Japanese with our club if they want. I imagine our Japanese members and Japanese-speaking members would enjoy it too.

Thanks,

- Joe
