A child-friendly theatrical performance, directed by Sonoko Kawahara, introduces Japan’s famous Tanabata legend of Hikoboshi and Orihime in an interactive setting filled with song and dance. Following the performance, families make paper ornaments and their own traditional tanzaku, thin paper strips for writing one’s wishes on, to hang on the bamboo branches in our lobby. Recommended for children ages 3-10 and accompanying adults.
Healthy Japanese light meals, snacks and festival-related refreshments available for purchase by BentOn.
