Hatsume Fair 2019

Our mission is to provide authentic Japanese cultural experiences that entertain, educate, and inspire. Celebrating the first bud of spring, Morikami’s largest annual event, Hatsume Fair (April 16 & 17, 2016), transforms the normally tranquil Morikami Park into a unique Japanese spring festival featuring three stages (with taiko drumming, martial arts demos and our annual costume and fashion show contest and a culinary stage), avenues of artisan booths, plant sales, Asian and American food vendors and children’s activities.
