Seattle Cherry Blossom & Japanese Cultural Festival
JAPAN AMERICA CENTER SEATTLE
Thanks for Attending!
Our festival has concluded, but the videos submitted by the Japanese and Japanese American community can be viewed anytime! This year’s theme was “Soul of Artisans”. As such, the Japanese community here and abroad submitted video covering Japanese tradition, contemporary art, music, dance, and even cooking demonstrations.
Over the years, many Japanese local businesses have been integral to both supporting our festival and contributing to Japanese-American culture in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest. As such, it’s our honor to highlight these businesses on our site and tell a little bit of their stories.
Our very first virtual festival has concluded! The full videos are available to view, via our Facebook page. Thank you to all who attended, and a very special thanks to the Seattle Center, City of Seattle Office of Arts and Culture, Consulate-General of Japan, NASH, and Meditating Bunny Studio for making all of this possible.
