In 1999, Yamada Seika, a manju-ya in San Francisco Japantown, closed its doors after 36 years of business. The owner, Mr. George Yamada, not only generously donated his mochi making machine to the JCCCNC but has shared his talents and joy of mochi making with the community. Participants will have the opportunity to watch Mr. Yamada transform hot cooked rice into mochi. Participants will then have the opportunity to make their own mochi balls to take home.

Sign up to participate ($12/JCCCNC members; $17 guests) OR sign up to volunteer and eat free mochi! For more info, contact Ken at Kmaeshiro@jcccnc.org
