We just wanted to say thank you to all who made our 2023 Japanese American Summer Festival a success! To our many volunteers, guest performers, donors, and the City of Concord…thank you!

But the biggest thanks goes to our guests who came out and showed their support! We have heard many good things over the weekend and we’re so happy to be back! A four year hiatus was a long time, but this past weekend felt so normal!

Save the date! We’ll see you again, July 27-28, 2024!
