- About Japan Fair

Japan Fair is a free festival event in Bellevue, WA that celebrates Japanese art and culture. Through the funds and donations, Japan Fair would love to keep providing free admission and free workshops to the public at Meydenbauer Center.

Formerly known as "Aki Matsuri", Japan Fair is a communal endeavor of musicians, artisans, community organizations, and businesses from both Japan and the U.S. who come together to share their products, talents, and knowledge of Japan. Through live performances on stage, hands-on exhibits, cultural workshops, and vendor booths, the public is immersed in the music, dance, artistry, and philosophy of Japan. Our goal is to not only introduce and spread the ideas and cultures of Japan, but to also bridge and connect the Japanese communities with the American communities.

◆ Vision Statement ◆

Awareness - Increase awareness of Japanese culture in the community by sharing traditional and modern art, crafts, technology, and culture of Japan.

Relationships - Build relationships between people of diverse communities in order to foster understanding and explore perceptions of cultural values.

Community - Bring together American and Japanese organizations and businesses to engage in the promotion of education and cultural exchange.
