JSO program coordinator Iku Nakagawa said the Japanese cul ture night has not been organized for two years because there wasn’t enough in terest from Japanese stu dents to help arrange the culture night. But Nakagawa said he want ed to help or ganize the event for this year. “The major goal of this event is to introduce Japanese culture and provide entertainment that tackles the interests [of the audience],” JSO Director Ruri Miyazaki said. In addition to present Japanese culture to other students, the event is an opportunity for other Japanese students to learn more about their own culture, said Shi geo Murao, Japan Night co-direc tor, said Since the event will be held in January, Miyazaki said the perfor mances of the night would focus on those cultural activities that are performed by the Japanese during the new year. Nakagawa said the highlight of Japan Night 2000 What: Japanese cultural night When: Sunday; dinner starts at 5:30 p.m., and performance starts at 7 p.m. Where: EMU Ballroom Contact: Japanese Student Organization at jso@gladstone.uorgon.edu for more information SOURCE: fapanese Student Organization the culture night will be the Shishima, a traditional Japanese lion dance, in which the perform ers will be moving a 29-meter long “lion.” The Shishima dance, Nak agawa said, is a form of prayer that the Japanese farmers would per form in order to wish for a good harvest and household safety for the coming year. Bon Odori, a dance that is used to console de parting spirits, will also be per formed. Other traditional events include Taiko dance from the Eugene Taiko Group. Students from Yug in Gakuen, a Japanese immersion school, will perform traditional Japanese songs during the night. In addition to the dances and song performances, Japanese stu dents will have a Mochitski per formance, in which the perform ers will be pounding on a lump of glutinous rice, during the night. The Mochitski is a traditional food that would be served in the new year and other celebrations in the Japanese society. Other than the traditional cul tural events, Nakagawa said stu dents will also introduce the mod ern development of the country in the night with a slide show.
