Look forward to games and activities for the kids and galleries of local Japanese arts and crafts, as well as several food kiosks featuring traditional Japanese cuisine. (On Friday night you’ll find a special performance by Japanese Comedian Yumi Nagashima and a Japanese-inspired drag show. It will also include a Mini Japanese Night Market, Sake and Beer Gardens.)
