JCA Genki na Hanami!

In Japan, spring is the season for hanami (花見), or cherry blossom viewing. Groups of friends, coworkers and families lay out tarps on the ground and sit there all day long admiring the blossoms, eating, singing, and usually drinking large quantities of sake. Now the JCA will be honoring this tradition with their very own hanami (minus the sake, I think). This coming Monday, April 12th, from 6-8pm, they will gather in Kirkhof room 1142 to celebrate spring and Japanese culture. There will be examples of origami, calligraphy, and other aspects of Japanese culture and, of course, it wouldn't be a hanami without food. There will be loads of free food there catered by XO Asian Cuisine. Bring your friends!
