Oplev Japan :-) I år fejrer Danmark og Japan 150 års jubilæum for oprettelse af de første diplomatiske forbindelser. Vi kommer her for at præsentere japansk kultur og for at indsamle donationer til jordskælvsramte områder i Japan.
***********************************
Lær at lave sushi
Sushi er en traditionel japansk ret. Sushi består af kogt grødris, der er tilsat riseddike, sukker og salt. Risen serveres med forskelligt tilbehør f.eks. fisk, grøntsager, eller æg. Der er forskellige former for sushi, sushi ruller, nigiri zushi, temari zushi, chirashi zushi osv.
Det koster det at prøve: 1 sushi rulle, eller 3 temari zushi for 15 kr. (fredag og lørdag)

Prøv at tage Kimono på
Kimono er nationaldragten i Japan. Kimonoer er T-formede, lige kåber, der har gulvlængde, med brede kraver og lange ærmer. Kimonoen slås rundt om kroppen med et bredt bæltebånd ”obi” viklet om og bundet på ryggen. Det er næsten umuligt at få en kimono på alene.
Det koster det at prøve: 15 min for 10 kr. (kun lørdag)

Prøv at smage Ramen nudler
Ramen er nudelsuppe på japansk manér. Ramen kom oprindeligt fra Kina. Ramen består af æggenudler og bouillon baseret på kød med forskellig smag, og serveres med forskelligt tilbehør som kylling, løg, æg, grøntsager og Nori tang.
1 skål for 30 kr. (kun lørdag)

Om det japanske telt i Odense: Japansk kultur og donationer
Vi er en flok japanere, der bor på Fyn. Nogle af os er kursister på NordFyns Højskole. Nogle af os er bosat i Odense og omegn. I år fejrer Danmark og Japan 150 års jubilæum for oprettelse af de første diplomatiske forbindelser. Vi kommer her for at præsentere japansk kultur og for at indsamle donationer til jordskælvsramte områder i Japan.

I midten af juni vil det vrimle med asiatiske gadekøkkener, sushi-kurser, origami og asiatisk dans og musik, når Brandts Klædefabrik for andet år i træk lægger ramme til den succesrige festival ”Asian Culture Festival”.

Dear all,

Thank you very much for your kind support and enthusiastic participation to the Asian Culture Festival 2016. This is the first time we developed the festival outside Aalborg to the four biggest cities in Denmark. It was such an unforgettable experience!!! We had great time together, met so many fantastic kind and beautiful Asian, tasted so many delicious spicy Asian food and enjoyed so many wonderful talented Asian performances :-)

Regarding the economic result, we broke the even as there were so much costs and expenses that were higher than our plan. The biggest cost was the festival infrastructure cost and the least cost was administration costs as we all worked as volunteers. Luckily, with your kind support to buy the entrance tickets, we could afford to pay all the costs and expenses. You can read our report in the below link: Rapporter/2016 http://www.asian-culture-festival.dk/om-festivalen.html

We received strong support from the Asian NGO in Denmark to join our festival and contributed with their cultural activities.

Nihonjinkai - Den Japanske Forening i Danmark raised more than 32.000kr during our festival to support to the tsunami and earthquake victims in Japan. Ris Uden Fis donated 1.555kr. The donation was sent to Otsuma Women’s University for their activities in Tohoku and Fukushima (17.900kr) and Tokai University (16.300kr).

Malaysian Danish Association raised 12.200kr to donate to Yayasan Chow Kit (YCK). Yayasan Chow Kit (YCK) is a NGO that has two care centers to support the disadvantaged children in Chow Kit, Malaysia: http://www.yck.org.my/

Skoleliv i Nepal received 13.000kr donation from the festival to support their project in Nepal: https://skolemadtilnepal.wordpress.com/

Rak Thai and Danish Indonesian Association raised some donation during our festival. We hope to hear from them with a specific number too.

We would love to hear from you if you would like to join our festival in 2017 as sponsors, sellers, suppliers, performers...We wish to have more Asian NGOs in Denmark to join us and contribute with their home-cultural activities so that we could learn to know them better. We wish to have travel agencies to join us and share with our festival visitors their wonderful experience in travelling to Asia. We wish we could receive your kind help and support to develop the festival better.

Thank you for supporting us in the Asian Culture Festival 2016, Happy New Year to you all and see you in the Asian Culture Festival 2017 :-)
