Experience Christmas Traditions from around the World!
The Kanoya International Exchange Association (KIEA) is organising a ‘World Christmases' event and a ‘Christmas Market booth' as introductions to the various Christmas cultures of the world.
The ‘World Christmases' event will be one where we can all enjoy various Christmas traditions, and will be hosted jointly by KIEA and the Kagoshima Asia Pacific Intercultural Countryside Centre (KAPIC Centre). Our main activity will be building mini gingerbread houses!
The ‘Christmas Market' event will see us set up a booth at the Kanoya City Christmas Party and provide mulled wine and other treats to the assembled merrymakers. We hope our Japanese and foreign residents can have a great time sharing these Christmas traditions!
