SUMMARY:Side by Side: Nihonmachi Scenes
DESCRIPTION:August 16\, 2024 through May 11\, 2025. \nSeattle’s pre-WWII nihonmachi\, or Japantown\, looked very different than it does today. \nIn the decade before the war\, three Issei artists flourished in the thriving Japanese community before the mass incarceration changed the face of the neighborhood forever. Kamekichi Tokita (1897-1948)\, Kenjiro Nomura (1896-1956)\, and Takuichi Fujii (1891-1964) received widespread recognition and praise for their paintings\, which provide an intimate view of what nihonmachi’s familiar streets\, alleys\, storefronts\, and houses looked like before the war. \nIn the American post-war years\, the three artists fell into obscurity as the Japanese community struggled to rebuild their lives\, but recently their life stories and artistic achievements have gradually been brought back to light. Side By Side features their work from the 1930s during the height of their artistic recognition and is the largest exhibition featuring the three artists’ work.

SUMMARY:Walk for Rice
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, June 29\, 2024 \nSupporting community at the ACRS Food Bank \n\n\nFor generations\, Walk for Rice brings people and communities together to raise funds for the ACRS Food Bank in Seattle’s Chinatown-International District and nutrition program and awareness about food insecurity in Asian and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander (ANHPI) communities. The fundraising campaign kicks off in the spring and culminates in a multicultural community celebration and three-mile walk at Seward Park in June. \nANHPI communities are a diverse and growing population\, and many disproportionately lack access to food\, emergency meals and other basic needs. The ACRS Food Bank ensures community members experiencing food scarcity have access to culturally familiar foods\, such as rice\, tofu\, dry noodles and fresh produce like bok choi. In 2023\, the ACRS Food Bank distributed over a million pounds of food and reached more than 5\,000 people\, many of them seniors and children. \nSince the first walk in 1990 with co-founders Sam Mitsui and Herb and Bertha Tsuchiya\, Walk for Rice has grown from 45 walkers to hundreds of participants each year and has raised more than $4 million to feed families and individuals experiencing hunger in our region. Join the community and Walk for Rice!

SUMMARY:Letters of Suresh
DESCRIPTION:April 24 to May 12\, 2024.  A captivating play by acclaimed playwright Rajiv Joseph. Directed by David Hsieh and Julie Beckman\, this play is a sequel to Joseph’s Animals Out of Paper (playing on alternate nights) and provides a moving exploration of love\, memory\, and the enduring impact of handwritten words. \nAbout the Play\nIn the ghost-filled city of Nagasaki\, Japan\, the lives of four individuals intersect through a series of heartfelt letters. The play unfolds as we follow the correspondence between: \n\nMelody Park (played by Mona Leach): A writing teacher who stumbles upon a cache of letters sent by Suresh to her late great-uncle. As she delves into their contents\, she discovers a profound connection that transcends time and distance.\nSuresh Thakur (played by Nirvan Patnaik): Picking up where Animals Out of Paper left off\, we follow Suresh’s journey from age 18 to 28.  A brilliant young man searching for meaning in his life\, Suresh’s letters reveal a soulful longing and a deep bond with an enigmatic pen pal.\nAmelia Wren (played by Marianna de Fazio): Suresh’s estranged girlfriend\, who receives unexpected letters that force her to confront the past and reconsider the choices she made.\nFather Hashimoto (played by Stephen Sumida): The priest who becomes Suresh’s confidant\, Fr Hashimoto provides guidance as Suresh moves through pivotal moment in his life: from confused teen to questing young adult\, to a profound thinker longing for forgiveness for his mistakes.  Through their letters\, Fr. Hashimoto offers solace and insight\, while inviting Suresh to spiritual growth\n\nAs the letters crisscross continents and decades\, secrets are unveiled\, emotions are laid bare\, and the power of human connection becomes palpable. Through Joseph’s lyrical prose\, we witness the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring legacy of handwritten communication.

It distinguishes itself through innovative and in-depth outreach to the public through traditional/contemporary Japanese art\, new scientific and technological innovations\, and cultural examinations\, especially race and social justice of Japanese in America\, Japanese Americans\, and Japanophiles. \nThe festival strives to deepen and expand mutual understanding\, serve as a vehicle for people to exchange ideas\, and promote as well as recognize cultural contributions and achievements of the Japanese American community. \nThe first festival was initiated by Mayor Wes Uhlman and community leaders to commemorate a gift of 1\,000 cherry trees to Seattle on the occasion of the U.S. Bicentennial by Japan’s former Prime Minister\, Takeo Miki. It was held at Seward Park for three years. \nIn 1979\, the festival moved to Seattle Center and has now grown into a three-day celebration enjoyed by thousands of people each year. \nDID YOU KNOW? \n\nThe beauty of cherry blossom is a potent symbol equated with evanescence of human life and epitomizes the transformation of Japanese culture throughout the ages.\n“Hanami” or the custom of viewing cherry blossoms\, is a reminder to celebrate life.\nThousand-years old cultural traditions co-exist with contemporary/pop culture in Japan. No other country can attest to the same degree.

SUMMARY:Aki Sogabe: Walking in Nature Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:April 2 to April 29\, 2024. \nThe Miller Library located at the Center for Urban Horticulture welcomes Aki Sogabe for her exhibit\, Walking in Nature. From the artist’s statement: \nMy medium\, paper cutting (kiri-e in Japanese)\, is an ancient and traditional art form. I have created my own style and made it a fine art. I like to use this art form to depict delicate Northwest nature scenes stylized with Japanese sensibilities. \nInspired by Edo period printmaster Hokusai\, I began making paper cuts as a junior high school student. For a long time\, I did it as a hobby for myself\, and sometimes would give them to my friends\, but never thought that I was going to be a professional artist. \nI use an X-Acto knife to cut out a design and add hand-colored rice papers underneath the stencil. Next\, the entire image is glued onto an illustration board. \nI have a number of public art commissions in Washington and Oregon. Additionally\, I have created five panel murals made of porcelain enamel for the Pike Place Market\, commemorating the history of Japanese American farmers. \nWhen I am cutting my work among the scattered bits of paper\, I feel most content and happy. \nThe exhibit is open during library hours. \nMeet the artist during the Garden Lovers’ Book Sale ticketed event Friday April 5\, 5 to 8 p.m. and the free event Saturday April 6\, from 9 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

SUMMARY:BENKYODO: The Last Manju Shop in J-Town
DESCRIPTION:Sun\, Feb 25th\, 1:00 PM @ Northwest Film Forum T1 \nAvailable February 26\, 12:00 AM – March 3\, 11:59 PM\, 2024] Stream online… \nRicky and Bobby Okamura\, the current owners of Benkyodo mochi shop\, established in 1906\, make a difficult decision to close their family business. The 115 year old Japanese pastry shop\, a landmark for Japanese/Asian Americans in the Bay Area\, is one of two mochi shops currently open in the San Francisco-Bay Area. The unsurmountable economic pressure\, coupled with the two brother’s desire to preserve their Japanese heritage\, family business and community space\, create an age-old conflict many children of diaspora face–between the laborious preservation of culture or the submission to the economic forces of racial capitalism.

SUMMARY:Seattle Betsuin Arson Restoration Fund
DESCRIPTION:As of January 11\, 2024: \nOne week has passed since the arson and the second fire. As the initial shock from the fire and its aftermath gradually diminishes within the Arson Restoration Project Committee (ARPC)\, we acknowledge the challenge of envisioning the current state of the temple. Please be assured that the ARPC is diligently working towards restoring the Seattle Betsuin. \nThe temple remains closed and off-limits to everyone. However\, the temple is still operating remotely and is available by email at office@seattlebetsuin.org. Meanwhile\, our dedicated professional clean-up crew is actively involved in efforts to restore both accessibility and safety. Given the restricted access\, a comprehensive assessment of the damage is yet to be completed. \nWe deeply appreciate the generous Dana (giving) received during this challenging time. The overwhelming support we have garnered for the restoration project is truly humbling\, and the encouragement from the community plays a pivotal role in rebuilding the temple. \nAs transparency is paramount to us\, we are committed to keeping you informed. Updates will be provided as we gather more information regarding the temple’s status.

SUMMARY:Mochi Tsuki Festival
DESCRIPTION:1/6/2024 – Join the Bainbridge Island Japanese American Community (BIJAC) at the annual Mochi Tsuki Festival. \nHighlights include performances from the acclaimed Seattle taiko drum group Kokon Taiko\, a mochi making presentation\, and a pictoral history of the award-winning exhibit “Kodomo No Tameni – For the sake of the children.” \nBIJAC members will prepare some batches of mochi in the centuries-old method of first steaming the sweet rice over an open fire\, then placing the cooked rice into a warm stone or concrete bowl called an usu. Using large wooden mallets\, two people rhythmically pound the rice in the usu\, while with bare hands a third person swiftly moves the rice between each mallet crash. \nAfter several minutes of vigorous pounding\, the rice becomes a thick\, smooth dough – mochi. From manual pounding in the usu or special mochi-making appliances\, the mochi is removed and children of all ages hand form the steaming-hot mochi into small handball-sized cakes\, filling some of them with a sweet bean paste called ahn. \nWhile arguably mochi is best eaten hot and fresh\, many enjoy roasting it in the oven\, then dipping the puffy and crisp hot mochi cakes into a combination of sugar and soy sauce. For future enjoyment\, mochi can be frozen in airtight bags. \nYou can experience the tradition of mochi tsuki (moe–chee sue–key) or “mochi–making” first hand. Pound rice and make mochi cakes along with the mochi masters. \nThis event is free and no pre-registration is required.
