Update from the JICC
With the end of summer approaching we look forward to autumn and especially to this year`s Japan Matsuri, which due to ongoing restrictions will be held as an online event. The JICC library and lobby exhibition space remain closed but we hope to share information about the reopening as soon as it is possible. Please follow the Embassy on Facebook and Twitter for the latest announcements, and if you have any queries, please contact us via email at info@ld.mofa.go.jp.
The Japan-UK Season of Culture continues until the end of the year and new events have been added to the online calendar so don`t forget to check! We have also been introducing several short info videos on our social media channels to introduce various aspects of Japanese culture. Our video on "Why katsu may not be what you think it is" has been particuarly popular! Please check the links below, share with your friends and look out for new videos over the next few months.
