Come enjoy the beauty of kimonos. The Japan America Society of St. Louis and Japan America Society Women’s Association will present the history of kimono from the time of The Tale of Genji to the present time. They will also demonstrate how to put on a kimono. Hosts will be wearing different kinds of kimonos which you can appreciate.

The event is free and open to all, and will take place in the auditorium of our permanent location, 6701 Delmar Blvd.

This program is presented as part of the 2023 Adult Summer Reading Big Book Challenge, featuring The Tale of Genji and The Priory of the Orange Tree. For more information, visit our Adult Summer Reading page.
