Showa Boston Institute

Students spent the weekend volunteering with the Museum of Science for their AAPI heritage event! Activities included a soran bushi performance and trying out kendama at our table with guests.

Showa Boston had a busy April as we returned to the Japan Festival on the Boston Common. Students supported the Festival as volunteers, assisting with tasks ranging from line management to selling raffle tickets and working with children. Our soran bushi team also performed, and we also showcased the campus’s first-ever rock band, who performed on both the main stage and at the Downtown Crossing Sake Rock Festival.

The spring semester is here, which means that Showa Boston will be all over community events! This weekend, we hosted a table at the Arnold Arboretum’s annual Cherry Blossom Festival. Showa Boston students performed soran bushi and taught games and calligraphy to attendees. Thank you to the Arboretum for hosting us! 🌸
