Culture Bridge: Dance And Culture Of Japan By Sachiyo Ito

Please join Sachiyo Ito & Company for a Queens Public Library virtual event:

Culture Bridge is a series celebrating Flushing as one of the most culturally diverse neighborhoods in Queens. Culture Bridge programs focus on musical instruments, dress or dance while presenting them in both English and the most popular language among the audience. These are opportunities for cross-cultural understanding and education.

In part one on 8/26, Sachiyo Ito, Ph.D. will discuss various aspects of Japanese culture as it relates to dance with slides and video excerpts from the Sachiyo Ito and Company Archive.

In the second part on 9/2, Sachiyo Ito will give a demonstration of Japanese classical dance including the usage of dance fans and perform dances. In addition, excerpts from the Sachiyo Ito and Company Archive will be presented.
