Japan America Society of Iowa is teaming up with the Iowa Bonsai Association and the Raccon Valley Kendo Club to offer an evening of Japanese culture, through our own local "Tanabata: Japanese Star Festival"
They will have their own Taiko drums at the event to do a short performance and offer a workshop to anyone interested. The Kendo club will also have a demonstration and workshop to teach how to swing a Bamboo Sword. The Bonsai Association will bring their Bonsai Trees displays and teach anyone the art of cutting Bonsai. And of course, they will still have origami and bamboo branches to hang written wishes
