(formerly known as carnival)

Every year, on the 4th Saturday and Sunday of July, Southeast Japanese School and Community Center holds its summer matsuri (cultural festival). See:

• flyer for the overall schedule for both days
• booth map

Most of the groups at the Center participate in the matsuri, for example by putting on a demonstration or exhibition, operating a game booth, or selling food. Norwalk Kendo Dojo does all three!

• teriyaki chicken and yakisoba booth
• goldfish toss booth (ping pong balls in fish bowl)
• kendo demonstration Saturday 4pm
  note: this year we will again be doing the demo in the judo room
