Get-Together at the Asian Festival!
Hi JYJers! It has come to our attention that an Asian Festival will be held so we wanted to invite everyone that can go!
Who: Everyone is invited!
What: The Asian Festival. It is a cultural event full of performances, with Asian food, games, market place, cultural exhibits, and more! We spoke with the coordinator of the festival and he said there will be 15 different ethnic groups but this year the focus will be on Korea and the Southeastern Asian countries. There are two parts to this weekend event. The festival will be held on the first two days and the Dragonboat race on the last day. We thought this would be a fun time and allow us to learn more about JYJ's culture.
Where: The Festival:
Franklin Park Conservatory
1777 E Broad St., Columbus, OH
Dragonboat Race
Downtown Columbus, Oh Genoa Park
When: Festival- May 25-26 from 10am-9pm
Dragonboat race- May 27 starting at 8am
Why: To celebrate and show the Asian cultures as well as to promote diversity
For more information please visit http://asian-festival.org/ or contact us at: jyjcircle@gmail.com
Note: The coordinator has informed us that they will be posting many more events within the next few days so we will decide then which days to go. If you need help with directions, finding a place to stay, or locating places to eat then please let us know and we will help you. Additionally. If there is time, we would like to go to norabang and sing a couple of JYJ's songs. If you are interested in this please let us know as well. You can choose to participate in just the festival/race or just noraebang. We would love to meet all of you in person if possible so please feel free to come and enjoy! For those of you who cannot come we hope to post many pictures!
Please stay tuned for more information as we will be releasing when and where to meet, as well as other information. Thank you!
[UPDATE!!!] All of the events have been posted and we will be meeting Sunday, May 26. The admins will be staying on May 27th as well in case anyone would like to attend the Dragonrace.
