The Natsumatsuri Family Festival will be presented as part of JANM Free Family Days on Saturday, Aug. 13, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Japanese American National Museum, 100 N. Central Ave. in Little Tokyo.
JANM’s annual summer celebration will feature Japanese and Japanese American performances, crafts and activities, plus free admission all day to see the exhibitions “Above the Fold: New Expressions in Origami,” “Tatau: Marks of Polynesia,” and “Common Ground: The Heart of Community.”
All-day activities:
? Make a colorful suncatcher to hang in a window.
? Create beautiful works of art by scratching your own designs into coated paper boards; as the black coating is scratched away, vivid rainbow colors are revealed.
? Fold paper cranes for Harvest for Hope, a project that aims to collect 1.5 million cranes in memory of children who died during the Holocaust. This activity is inspired by Sadako Sasaki, a young girl who folded over 1,000 paper cranes in hopes of recovering from illness caused by the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima. One of Sadako’s original cranes is on display now in front of JANM’s Hirasaki National Resource Center.
? It wouldn’t be Natsumatsuri without JANM’s signature paper hats. Make one that shows off your personal style.
? Take home a souvenir photo of yourself in a traditional happi coat, courtesy of Nerdbot. Express line for JANM members.
? Sample freshly made saataa andaagii — Okinawan deep-fried pastries — while supplies last.
? While exploring JANM’s exhibitions, find all of the items on the scavenger hunt list and win a prize courtesy of Bandai.
? Learn to fold a paper koi (carp) at Ruthie’s Origami Corner.
? Bring your toddlers to the Toddler Room to relax and play with other toddlers. Note: all children must be supervised by an accompanying adult at all times.
