Mark Your Calendar for the Sakura Matsuri
Sakura Matsuri - The Japanese Street Festival will be held on Saturday, April 8, 2006 following the annual Cherry Blossom Parade. The Japan-America Society has organized this annual festival since 1961.
Last year's festival attracted over 100,000 visitors, and this year's Sakura Matsuri promises to be even bigger. We are adding on two more streets in downtown DC, and the 2006 Matsuri will stretch over eight square blocks in our Nation's Capital -- east to west from 10th to 14th Streets, and north to south from E Street to Pennsylvania Avenue.
The Society is now looking for Japanese food vendors, arts and crafts sellers, purveyors of Japanese merchandise, and Japanese performing artists to participate in the event. For more information, please see our website at http://www.us-japan.org/dc/ .
