About the Event: 

Step into a world of creativity, culture, and excitement as we bring Japan to life for kids and families in Southern Colorado. Your children will have the chance to craft beautiful origami, practice Japanese calligraphy, and make their very own colorful koinobori (carp streamers). They’ll also love playing classic Japanese games like kendama, menko, and daruma otoshi, plus exploring the world of anime and manga! View past photos of this event here!

To top it off, children can shine in our Gala Children’s Fashion Show, wearing kimono, yukata, martial arts uniforms, or Asian-inspired outfits. 

Your kids can also enjoy live musical and martial arts performances, with the chance to interact and try it themselves! Even more exciting activities are in the works, so stay tuned, and use the REGISTER button to receive updates!
