The Mid-Hudson
Japanese
Community
Association (MHJCA) is a non-profit organization created and
supported by dedicated
individuals, parents and professionals. MHJCA Members are residents of
the Hudson Valley Region of New York State (Dutchess, Ulster, Orange,
Putnam and surrounding counties) who have an interest in Japanese
culture,
how it interacts and intertwines with others, and wish to share that
interest with all who live around us.
Membership is open to those of
any culture and ancestry, as long as there is a sincere interest in the
Japanese cross-cultural mission. Group activities are steadily
increasing as the group grows in size. Currently the MHJCA offers
social events such as luncheons, picnics and holiday celebrations, as
well as activities such as workshops and programs to explore cultural
traditions (such as crafts, festivals, cooking, gardening, calligraphy,
etc.). The MHJCA also offers educational/language/historical
presentations, aimed toward both children and
adults in the Hudson Valley area.
