Date : 15 Oct 2006

Time : 10.00am - 7.00pm

Venue : River Room

In conjunction with Hidden Faces: The Art of Japanese Masks, the ACM is going Japanese for the day.

Be heralded into the museum with a resounding opening of Taiko drums. Enjoy a warm cup of green tea as you observe the quiet art of the traditional tea ceremony, the contemplative way of Ikebana and the intricacy of wearing a traditional kimono. Try your hand at making traditional Japanese paper from scratch. Be mesmerised by the grace of the buyo dancers.

Perhaps you are more a fan of contemporary Japanese culture? Then you will enjoy the mini bazaar that is full of things to buy and goodies to eat. Fans of anime, be sure to attend our anime marathon. The night really lights up with our J-Rock concert as young musicians belt out popular Japanese hits.

So come to ACM and Let’s Go Japan!

Reduced entry of $2 to the museum.
