We had a very busy, yet fruitful past 3 days with Amezaiku Extraordinaire, Takahiro Yoshihara of Amezaiku Yoshihara.  We visited Dwight School early learning center on Thursday, then PS 198 Kindergarten Class on Friday.  Today was a double-header, with Lyceum Kennedy Japanese School, and Kumon-LIC in the afternoon.  It is always great to see children's faces light up, and this week was no different.

Now onto the main event at Japan Block Fair, Sunday October 19th.  As stated earlier, we will be at Upper West Side, Broadway between 93 & 94 to be exact.  He will bring his incomparable skills, as well as too pretty to eat candies.  If you want, you can ask him what you want, and Yoshihara san can work on it right there on the spot.

Along with our booth, there's several great booths providing awesome eats, items, and activities.  Japan Block Fair will start at noon and go on until 5pm.  We hope to see you tomorrow, you will be sure to have an "Ame"-zing time!

Made in Japan Inc.主催のパフォーマンスショー「Balloon × Ninja―a show for all ages―」が2日、ニューヨークのバルークカレッジ・エンゲルマンリサイタルホールで公演された。当日は雪の予報にもかかわらず、延べ400人が来場し、バルーンアーティスト、Syanと忍者姿のジャグリングアーティスト、EISUKEのパフォーマンスを楽しんだ。
ショーは、“a show for all ages”の文字通り、年齢・性別・人種・言語あらゆる壁を超えた構成で、観客を大いに楽しませた。終演後には出演者との記念撮影会があり盛り上がりをみせた。
SyanとEISUKEは、ニューヨーク滞在期間中、施設や病院などでボランティア公演を行い、来場できない多くの子供たちにも興奮と感動を届けた。「風船はいずれしぼんでしまうものだけれど、みんなの心に思い出となって膨らんでくれたらうれしいです」とSyan。
主催者は「今後も伝統的な日本と近代的な日本を調和させた、言葉がなくても伝わりやすい「職人技=Art」で感動を届けていきたいと」と語った。

Ravenwood Community Center, Astoria

Yesterday's stop was at Ravenwood Community Center in Astoria. With help from Long Island City/Astoria Lions Club and Riis Academy and Hour Children, we were able to meet many children who were just pure energy! Syan, Eisuke, and all of us at Made In Japan Inc. had great time! Ravenwood Community Center is such a positive place for youth of Astoria. Hard works by Riis Academy and HourChildren are so easily seen in children's faces. Glad to meet all of them! Special thanks to Lavern and Maria at Ravenwood, Jeff from HourChildren, and LIC/Astoria Lion's Club's Brent O'Leary.

I hope we can deliver as much excitement as we did at Ravenwood at Balloon Ninja on March 2nd, at Baruch College. Tickets are available athttp://www.madeinjapanny.com/events.html

Syan and Eisuke received the warmest welcome from faculties and kids at Queen's Children's Psychiatric Center. Amazing folks like Freddie Orange from Healing Arts Initiative and Brenton Hard of Long Island City/Astoria Lions Club made this possible. Children's reactions were uplifting to say the least. Staff and faculties seem to enjoy the show more than kids did. Times like this we truly feel blessed to be working with guys who can bring smile to so many people.

For more about Healing Arts Initiative and its amazing works, visit http://hainyc.org/.  Made In Japan Inc. is very excited to work with such an innovative organization.
