Hi Everyone!

The focus for this month will be Japanese calligraphy. We can practice words like gratitude, love, appreciation, wisdom, thank you, understanding and many other Kanji. When our talents have developed enough we can produce cards or posters to use to solicit donations as part of a fundraiser.

Members of the cultural society have offered to supply recordings from Japanese television. Japanese Culture can be appreciated through cinematography.

Different Japanese Dishes will be offered each month. Our goal of folding a thousand cranes for Peace can be resumed. Japanese music and elementary language lessons are also available.

To prepare with language learning go to the Message Board section and learn Japanese songs.

Please wear thick socks or bring a cozy pair of house slippers for when the outdoor shoes are removed at the entrance.

More details to come as they develop.

Admission is free. Donations are greatly appreciated.

If you want to support Kiyo Mizu Kai please consider becoming a member. You can find a membership form in the Files section.

    Hi, I am definitely no expert in dance but I can look and see what I can find online and we can practice some. It should be fun!

    Hello Everyone, This meet-up is a special one. It marks our 1 year anniversary!! Yes we started meeting on the 3rd Wednesday a year ago already! We had a pretty fun time doing calligraphy a few months back (see pics) and I think, if MP doesn't mind bringing the supplies back, that we can try it again. As for food, I think I will show you how to make a very simple and quite popular cold noodle dish just that's just right for summertime. Let me know if you have any questions.
