Join the Japanese Dance Celebration on February 10th!

Feeling the Winter Blues? Come to Momiji to experience a new fundraising event – our New Year’s Japanese Dance Celebration! We are thrilled to be hosting three dance teams for this celebration:

  • Kochi Yosakoi Ambassador KIZUNA International Team, sponsored by the NAJC, Greater Toronto Chapter
  • Ayame-Kai
  • Momiji Odori no Kai

Although the dance performance does not start until 1:30, you can pre-order a boxed lunch ( ½ tuna and ½ egg salad sandwich; side coleslaw; a piece of fruit and cookie, all prepared by our Momiji Café Volunteers) and enjoy this at Momiji with your friends and family starting at noon. Tickets are $10 ($5 for seniors or youth/children under 16) and the lunch is an affordable $6. Pre-ordering is necessary.

At the end of the performances, there will be two workshops where the audience will be able to participate – if you wish. There will also be a mini-raffle and some Japonica items for sale. To order tickets please visit our EventBrite page or contact our Communications & Development department at fundraising@momiji.on.ca or call 416.261.6683, ext. 259 or 260.

Wellness Room Grand-Opening

The Wellness Room will have a Grand-Opening Ceremony on Wednesday, January 25 from 1:30pm-2:30pm in the Auditorium.
The room was renovated using the special grant from Japanese Canadians Survivors Health and Wellness Fund. Come check out the newly renovated space and all the new possibilities it brings.

Japonica (September 7) Update

Japonica is fast approaching and our team is hard at work cataloguing all of the wonderful donations. Due to the volume, we will be unable to accept donations for this event after Monday, August 26th. Please note that due to a lack of storage space, we are also unable to accept Bazaar donations until early 2020. Thanks and we hope to see you on September 7th!
