Cultural Demonstration: Kadomatsu (Gate Pines)

All across Japan, during the New Year celebration of O-Shogatsu, you will find kadomatsu or “gate pines” at residential doorways and the entrances to shrines, public buildings, and commercial facilities. Join us from 1:15-2:15pm for a presentation on kadomatsu by Caleb Hendrickson of Saga Goryu in the Jordan Schnitzer Japanese Arts Learning Center.
