While modern Japanese media culture has been a major focus for us, we also love to show off the other aspects of Japanese culture, both traditional and modern. In previous years, we've had Aikido and Sumo demontrations along with traditional Taiko Drumming. Along with this we've had numerous educational panels by the Grand Rapids Omihachiman Sister City Committee and well-known Cultural Anthropologist, Charles Dunbar. 

As we get closer to JAFAX 2025, we'll let you know about the great cultural events we get lined up!
