Partner With Us

JAASC is always looking for unique ways to connect our community members with resources. We partner with artists, schools, universities, organizations, museums, and other non-profits to plan Japan-related events.

Please contact us if you’re interested in hosting an event, volunteering, or getting more involved.

If you’re interested in sponsoring one of our events such as the Bon Festival, Shinnenkai, or a seminar, please let us know!

Improve Your Language Skills

JAASC’s Language Table series is open to all English and Japanese learners who want an excellent opportunity to practice listening and speaking skills while building relationships in a friendly, bilingual environment.

Everyone is welcome, but it is best if you have some basic conversational level of English and Japanese.

Play With Purpose

Do you play golf and want to make a difference in US-Japanese relationships? The Japan Affairs Committee organizes charity golf tournaments throughout the year for our members. Funds and donations from these events support the longevity of the JAASC programs and initiatives.
