Obon Dance Workshop presented by Hawaii State Library

  • Kaimuki Public Library 1041 Koko Head Avenue Honolulu, HI, 96816 United States (map)

Bon Season is upon us!  All are welcome to come and learn dances that are often danced at the bon dance; which for Hawai’i will be until October.  This program is fun for all ages and will be held in the Adult Reading Room!

For those of you who aren’t familiar with Bon Dances or Bon Odori, it is an annual Japanese Dance Festival that occurs during Obon season in the Summer.  It is a celebration of family, heritage, tradition, a celebration of life, and a way to honor ones’ ancestors.  Children under 12 need to be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
