SUMMARY:Under the Cherry Trees: From Old Japan to Washington\, D.C.
DESCRIPTION:(DC) (Japan Information and Cultural Center) In Japan\, people have long strolled under masses of cherry blossoms in a springtime tradition known as hanami (花見; flower viewing). Today\, millions of people enjoy a similar experience in Washington\, D.C.\, made possible through the combined efforts of Japanese and American individuals who shared a vision. Local writer Diana Parsell\, author of Eliza Scidmore: The Trailblazing Journalist Behind Washington’s Cherry Trees\, will share the history and symbolism of cherry blossoms in Japan and trace the remarkable story of how they came to grace the banks of the Potomac River. In this richly illustrated talk\, learn about the cultural and spiritual meanings behind hanami that has connected people\, places\, and histories across generations and continents.
