Come and join our fun Japanese sweet dumpling (dango) making, presented by two Japanese teachers Emi and Tetsuko!

As teachers who teach Japanese to foreigners we have hosted many cultural events to introduce not only the language but also life and culture.

Dango making has been very popular among both Japanese and foreigners. You will learn how to make Dango as well as useful Japanese phrases, culture and customs. Try to use the phrases that you learn with the local people.
