Japan Society’s 118th Anniversary Celebration
Monday, May 19th, 7:00 PM ET
On May 19, 1907, Japan Society was founded in New York City. A forward-looking group of civic and business leaders created the organization to grow the bonds between the U.S. and Japan, furthering mutual understanding and cultural, political and economic ties.
118 years later, the U.S. and Japan are close allies and interest in Japan’s people, business and arts has never been greater.
To celebrate Japan Society’s birthday this year, we are honored to gaze into the future with a forward-looking conversation between Dassai Chairman Hiroshi Sakurai and Japan Society President & CEO Joshua W. Walker, followed by a reception featuring New York sake brewery Dassai Blue, its sake itself a statement to the power and potential of U.S.-Japan collaboration.
During the reception, guests are invited to enjoy an open-bar sake tasting featuring four varieties from Dassai Blue, along with light bites of Japanese cuisine. Must be 21 years of age, or older.
