The Hanami Event, a celebration of Japanese culture and custom, is to take place on campus at LYIT on April 25th next.
The event will commence at 12pm, with the plantation of a cherry blossom tree by the Gardening Club on campus, with an array of Japanese themed activities and food available until 3pm.
It is hoped that this event will encourage future cultural events on campus and that, in organising this event, more people on campus will become aware of other cultures and customs.
A number of Japanese people living in Donegal will host events ranging from an origami demonstration to basic Japanese language classes. There will be Japanese animation shows, karaoke and guest lectures on Japanese art and culture.
Please feel free to drop into LYIT on Thursday 25 April, 2013. This event is open to the community. Please see the itinerary of events below.
