The event is a chance to learn more about Japanese culture and how it has influenced our lives. It includes workshops on origami, Japanese woodblock prints, garden design, anime films, a textile demonstration, and much more. BOA has been asked to set up a table at the event to showcase some of our translated books and other select titles. We will be there from 2-5PM with an array of poetry books, information about the press, and our big BOA smiles. Come over to the MAG, say hi to us, and learn a few new things about Japanese culture!
