Event to celebrate
Japanese culture
■ Japan Night 2000, to be
held Sunday in the EMU,
will feature traditional
songs and dances
By Edward Yuen
Oregon Daily Emerald
University students will have
an opportunity to know more
about Japanese culture Sunday
through Japan Night 2000, an
event organized by the Japanese
Student Organization.
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

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.
