Program & Event Committee
Meet the Members Zoom
Saturday, april 3, 2021 @15:00 JST
SUMMARY:
For this sakura season, AIAJ is organizing a casual online event to meet the members. Prepare some tea, drinks, snacks and enjoy this friendly discussion at our virtual hanami get-together.
In-person events have been cancelled or postponed since spring 2021. It’s been too long - we would like to take this time to meet and get to know our members. We’ll take this opportunity to introduce some of the events, discussions, and lectures organized for this year. We would love to hear your proposals and opinions to tailor events to your interests. Let’s discuss what topics are relevant at this time, which buildings or places you wish to visit, who you would like to hear speak, or with whom you’d like to speak to…
