Description

The Tanabata Star Festival commemorates the meeting of two deities in love, represented by the stars Vega and Altair. According to legend, they are only allowed to meet once a year, on July 7, as long as the skies are clear.

Join us for a family event featuring a captivating storytime about the legendary Japanese prince and princess, brought to you in collaboration with the M.O.Ve Bookmobile. Explore fascinating books on Japan and get creative with our origami crafts and calligraphy activity to decorate bamboo trees in celebration of the day.
