Bloomfield Township Public Library is pleased host Sakura Japanese Instrumental Group for a mini concert of festival and folk music followed by a bon dance on Saturday, November 16 from 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. The dance is characterized by simple, repetitive movements that are easy for participants of all ages to learn. The moves can also be done sitting down. While rooted in spiritual significance, bon dances are also a celebration of life, community, and cultural heritage, bringing people together in joyful expression.
“Events like this bring our community together, allowing us to experience and appreciate different cultures,” said Adult and Teen Services librarian Brooke Hoskins. “We’re excited to create a joyful space where music and dance unite us all,” she adds.
All are welcome; no registration required.
