Oregon Asian Celebration

Posted February 12, 2011

Oregon Asian Celebration 2011 is fast approaching, Saturday and Sunday, February 19th and 20th! Join the Kumoricon crew as we return to our birthplace, Eugene, Oregon, offering gaming, karaoke, and hands-on cat-ear making to the patrons of Oregon’s longest-running celebration of Asian culture, now in its 26th year. All ages are welcome at this very kid-friendly event, which showcases cultures from East Asia, Southeast Asia, and South Asia. Food booths, dance, musical performances, martial arts demos, cooking and bonsai demos, artisans and art classes (including manga classes by Copic), and educational booths abound. To volunteer, contact Jaki at programming@kumoricon.org, or hop by during the weekend to provide breaks to other grateful crewmembers. For the event schedule, go to www.asiancelebration.org. Hope to see you there!
