Asianati Hanami Picnic

Join Asianati, in partnership with the Cincinnati Parks and the Japan America Society of Greater Cincinnati (JASGC), for its Hanami picnic, the centuries-old Japanese custom of gathering to view cherry blossoms.

Pre-order your bento box lunch from one of our participating Japanese restaurants (Cafe Mochiko, Chako Bakery Cafe, and Mei Japanese Restaurant), and picnic by Ault Park’s Cherry Tree Grove! Enjoy entertainment provided by the Cincinnati-Dayton Taiko Drummers, and Sakura Ladies chorus, and sing outdoor karaoke.

Asianati will present its 1,000 Cranes (Senbazuru) gift to the owners of Tokyo Foods, the Matsudas.

Admission is free and open to the public. Please pre-order your bento box lunches by Friday, March 24 at 5 p.m.
