This spring, the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre brings you Tsumugu – a trio of
top Japanese performers and recording artists – for a rare and inspiring evening oftraditional Japanese music.
The concert brings together three diverse performers for an evening of music
like Canadian audiences have never experienced. There will be one performance
only in Toronto.
The concert will be an extraordinary collaboration of virtuoso performers:
combining traditional songs of the Amami Islands, the Tsugaru Shamisen of Aomori
prefecture, and the thunderous power of the Taiko drum.
The result is an uplifting musical evocation of the Japanese spirit. With theiracclaimed mastery of Japanese traditional instruments and art forms, Anna Sato
(Vocals), Chie Hanawa (Tsugaru Shamisen) and Keita Kanazashi (Taiko) havejoined forces to bring these instruments and sounds to magnificent new levels.

HONOURING
JAPANESE CANADIAN LEGENDSThe

Baseball Team

SATURDAY, APRIL 16, 2016
JAPANESE CANADIAN CULTURAL CENTRE

The Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre’s Sakura Gala features the best of Canadian and Japanese entertainmentand cuisine, in recognition of exceptional contributions made by individuals to the promotion and exchange
of Japanese culture and enhancing awareness of Nikkei heritage within Canada and abroad.

Representative recipient and original
Asahi player Kaye KaminishiThis year we celebrate and honour the Asahi Baseball Team, the pride of the Japanese Canadian communityfrom when they were established in Vancouver in 1914 to when the team was disbanded during internment
in the 1940s.
The Asahi were an exceptional baseball team because of their commitment to fair play and hard work. They
were a powerful inspiration in Vancouver’s Japanese Canadian community. While faced with discrimination
off the field, the Asahi could then play baseball, where opposing teams respected their sportsmanship andskill. The team effectively broke down racial and cultural barriers for 27 years. The Asahi team members tookthese experiences and the uniting spirit of baseball with them to internment camps in 1942 and gave hopeto others interned by playing baseball. The team was inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame in2003 and the BC Sports Hall of Fame in 2005.

Performance by Nagata Shachu

The evening is hosted by CBC Radio’s Mary Ito and features a performance by Nagata Shachu.

After a slow start to the winter, Toronto finally experienced some colder temperaturesand snow towards the end of February. This was the perfect encouragement for
thousands of visitors to flock to the JCCC for the annual Spring Festivall, Haru
Matsuri.
Upon entering the building, visitors were awed by the impressive Hina Ningyo
doll display. But the visual attractions didn’t stop there. There were lots of vendors
with their colourful wares as well as displays from our own Heritage Archives. We
were also treated to a blend of tradition and technology with the Sakura Interactive
Experience - Produced by the Creator’s Lounge, you could play virtual instruments
and stimulate blossoming sakura with the spoken word.

In Kobayashi Hall, visitors found more vendors and cultural crafts as well as live
entertainment. Performances included all of the favourites, but saw many changes
to make them new and exciting. The Sakura Kai, the Ayame Kai, Urara Minbu Kai,
Sakuramai and the Himawari Buyo Kai all showcased their new repertoires. The
koto performances by Kiri Koto Ensemble were still as impressive as ever andsaw the introduction of accompanying vocals. The students of Yakudo Traditonal
Drummers also brought their fierce beats to echo throughout the Hall. We also
saw performances by Ohana Hula.
Of course, there were also the demonstrations of martial arts in the dojos,

tea ceremonies, Japanese foodin Shokokai Court and more vendors throughout thebuilding. At the easttern end of our building, we had a bustling room of activities
for children including colouring pages, thumbprint Sakura pictures, origami,
hands-on Koto activities and Kimono dressing - all staffed by many enthusiastic
volunteers. With all that there was to see and do, it was no wonder why everyone
had agreat day!
The JCCC thanks the individuals, groups and organizations that provide theentertainment and demonstrations. We also thank all the great volunteers andstaff, who have all helped raise this great community tradition to new and greater
heights!

Tattoos: Coming to the JCCC
Gallery!
by Arts Committee

From Wednesday 18
May, 2016 throughSundayAugust7, 2016, the Arts
Committee of the
JCCC is proud tohost an exhibit titled“Bayefsky/Inouye– Tattoo Images”,
a dual exhibitionontattoosandJapanese/Canadiancultural contexts in
the JCCC Gallery.
The show brings
together a series ofwatercolour paintingsof tattooed Japanese individuals, produced during a1982 sojourn in Japan by prominent Canadian artist, Aba
Bayefsky, and a new (2016) series of photographs on Nikkei
and non-Nikkei Canadians, their tattoos, and Japanese style
ink work in the Toronto area by Japanese artist, Yosh Inouye.
While the work of each artist is worthy of separate attention,
the juxtaposition of media (watercolour/photography),and socio-cultural spaces (Japan/Canada), creates acontrasting and engaging discussion that encourages us tolook at cultural contexts – Canadian in Japan, Japanese in
Canada, and Japanese/Canadian identities – through thebeauty and art of tattooing, and Japanese style ink work.
Two events will markthe show: an opening
reception on Thursday
May 19, 2016 at 7pm,
and a live tattooing eventin late June, featuring
Toronto based Japanese
tattoo artist, MARU from
Hidden Door Studio. Stay
tuned for further details on
both events, and we hope
you’ll join us as we “mark”
the occasion!

Momiji Centre.
SEE OVER
Proceeds from thisfundraising event allow Momiji to purchase items that wewould not be able to afford otherwise. Last year’s proceeds,
for example, allowed us to reupholster chairs in our EPC and9th Floor lounge to a high grade healthcare fabric, which
improved the comfort and cleanliness of the chairs.
Raising funds from the Bowlathon becomes more crucial
each year as our seniors grow older and more frail requiring
more care. Since bowling fees and the cost of the meal are
priced to be affordable and provide little profit, the donations
and sponsorships that bowlers solicit from family, friends andcommunity members are crucial in this fundraising effort.
This year, to make soliciting donations as easy as possible,
you can now collect donations online.
Teams or individual bowlers are most welcome. To get
involved in our Bowlathon, please contact Scott Ohashi

2016 Hiroshima Kenjin Kai
Shinbokukai Re-Scheduled
by Hiroshima Kenjin Kai

The shimbokukai previously set for Saturday April 2, 2016has been rescheduled to Saturday May 7, 2016. All otherdetails remain unchanged. The change in dates came about
as a result of learning that a delegation from the Hiroshima
Prefectural Government are coming to Toronto on May 7,2016 and expressed a desire to observe the Kenjin Kai inaction.
Thus the change in dates to accommodate this group.
The executive felt this would be an excellent opportunity tomeet and mingle with the delegation members.
Saturday May 7, 2016 at the Toronto Buddhist Temple, 1011
Sheppard Ave. W., Toronto. Registration and reception startat 12:30pm with a Buddhist memorial service to follow at
1:00pm.

過去の裕福だった暮らしが忘れられず「まだ自分はお姫様になれる」と思っている母親と、お金さえあれば自分は「すごい人間」になって「すごい世界」で大活躍できると信じているアルコール依存症の弟。二人は借金を重ねながらも、傲慢で贅沢な暮らしをやめることができない。主人公の奈津子は二人に理不尽な仕打ち（精神的な暴力、経済的な搾取）を受けながら人生をすっかりあきらめていた。
「自分に楽しい将来があると考えられなかった」のだ。
「魔がさして」結婚した夫も結婚直後に倒れ脳障害をわずらっている。
ある日、奈津子は夫と二人で旅に出る。裕福だった両親に連れられていった高級リゾートホテルが「１泊２日５０００円」の区の保養所になっていたのだ。それは、奈津子が自分の過去をたどる

JAPANESE CANADIAN CULTURAL CENTRE

The Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre’s Sakura Gala features the best of Canadian and Japanese entertainmentand cuisine, in recognition of exceptional contributions made by individuals to the promotion and exchange
of Japanese culture and enhancing awareness of Nikkei heritage within Canada and abroad.

Representative recipient and original
Asahi player Kaye KaminishiThis year we celebrate and honour the Asahi Baseball Team, the pride of the Japanese Canadian communityfrom when they were established in Vancouver in 1914 to when the team was disbanded during internment
in the 1940s.
The Asahi were an exceptional baseball team because of their commitment to fair play and hard work. They
were a powerful inspiration in Vancouver’s Japanese Canadian community. While faced with discrimination
off the field, the Asahi could then play baseball, where opposing teams respected their sportsmanship andskill. The team effectively broke down racial and cultural barriers for 27 years. The Asahi team members tookthese experiences and the uniting spirit of baseball with them to internment camps in 1942 and gave hopeto others interned by playing baseball. The team was inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame in2003 and the BC Sports Hall of Fame in 2005.

Performance by Nagata Shachu

The evening is hosted by CBC Radio’s Mary Ito and features a performance by Nagata Shachu.

JCCCライブラリー利用のすすめ
日本でもミニマリスト生活（持たない暮らし）の心棒者が増えてきているそうだ。徹底したミニマリストだと、家具も最小限、テーブルが一つだけのようなガラーンとした部屋に住み、キッチンにはお鍋一つ、食器も数個、洋服は数着のみ、などすっきりした生活を楽しんでいるようである。
又近年、断捨離や近藤麻理恵（こんまり）の片付け本などで、物の処分、整理整頓ブームもある。近藤麻理
恵はTIME誌2015年の「もっとも影響力のある100人」の一人として名前が上がるほどで、彼女の本『人生がとき
めく片付けの魔法』の英語版は北米でもベストセラーとなっている。何を隠そう私もこの本の影響で片付けにわ
くわくする日々を送った一人である。
「片付け」の中でも本の処分は誰もが頭を悩ますところであろう。
これほど捨てにくいものはなかなかな
いのではなかろうか。
しかし、本棚にあっても繰り返し読む本というのは実際そんなに多くないものである。
JCCCライブラリーがオープンして２年半、和書へのアクセス手近になり、楽しんでいる。日本語での読書に満足しているのはもちろんだが、ライブラリー図書を利用する副産物ともいえる「自宅に本が増えない」つまり「片付く」
ことにも非常に満足を覚えている。読み終わった後、その本は自分のもとから離れライブラリーへと帰り、次の読者へと渡っていく。本購入費も節約、ライブラリーの利用は一石二鳥どころか三鳥も四鳥も。正直なところ、以前は自宅蔵書に喜びを感じていた私が、今はライブラリーを愛顧にしている。
物に溢れ、飽和状態の社会である今こそ、より多くの方にJCCCライブラリー利用をお勧めしたいと思う今日この頃である。

国語「三年下」ちいちゃんのかげおくり感想文

ちいちゃんのかげおくりのさいしょの所を読んだ時は、
とても楽しい様子と思いました。でもさいごは、
ちいちゃんとお兄ちゃんはとてもかわいそうだと思いました。
心にのこった所は、
ちいちゃんの小さな命がきえた所です。お父さんとお母さんはがんばって子どもをまもったと思います。
わたしは、せんそうはさいあくと思いました。

アントニオ

心花

「ちいちゃんのかげおくり」という題名を読んだ時、
こんなかなしい話だとは思いませんでした。
わたしの心に一番のこったところは、
ちいちゃんがお母さんとはぐれた場面と、ちいちゃんが一人でかげおくりをした場面です。
もし、わたしがお母さんたちとはぐれてしまったら、きっとふあんでどうしていいかわからなくなってしまうでしょう。 そして、ちいちゃんが、お父さんとお母さんとお兄ちゃんの声をさいごに聞けてよかったなと思いました。
せんそうでちいちゃんの命が空にきえてしまったことがとてもつらいです。だから、わたしはちいちゃんの分もがんばりたいと思います。
															葉

静奈ぼくは、一番さいしょに読んだときは意味がわからなかったけれど、何回か読んでかなしいお話だとわかりました。
家族でかげおくりをする時にみんなで数を数える場面がいんしょうにのこりました。
一番心をうたれたところは、
ちいちゃんが一人でかげおくりをして青空を見上げた時、家族みんなにまた会えた場面です。
ちいちゃんも家
族みんなも死んでしまったけれど、さいごにみんないっしょになれたところが感動しました。もう、ちいちゃん一人じゃないんだ、
よかったなと思いました。																								岩田 トリステン祐輝

わたしがいちばん心うたれたところは、
ちいちゃんがお兄ちゃんとお母さんとにげなきゃいけなかったところです。
どうしてかというと、みんないっしょうけんめい走ってにげたのに、お兄ちゃんがけがをしたのでお母さんがだっこして、
ちいちゃんは一人で走っていたから、みんなとはぐれてしまったからです。
														小澤

芽生ぼくが一番心をうたれたことは、
ちいちゃんと家族の命がうばわれたことです。ちいちゃんが死んで、家族も死んで、悲しい結末だと思います。
ちいちゃんは、戦争のせいで食べ物がなく、住む所もなく、生活ができない環境に住んでいたので死んでしまいました。
ぼくは、戦争が大嫌いです。ぼくは、地球が、戦争のない平和な所になってほしいです。
														キニア ジュリアン諒

わたしはこの話を読んで、ちいちゃんがかわいそうだと思いました。 心にのこった場面は、さいごにみんなでかげおくりをしたところです。
なぜかというと、
これが家族さいごのきねん写真となったからです。こんなかわいそうな事が、もうおこらなければいいなと思います。
															

金

初奈さいしょにこの話を読んで、『かげおくりの遊び』と書いてあったので、楽しい話かと思いました。けれども、読み終わったらとてもかなしい話でした。
話の中で一番心にのこった場面は、さいごにちいちゃんが天国で家族と会えた場面です。ちいちゃんは、せんそうでにげる時に家族とはぐれてしまい、
とてもかなしかったと思います。わたしが八さいの時、お母さんが日本に1週間行きました。その間、おばあちゃんが来ていっしょにいてくれましたが、それでもお母さんに会いたくてさみしかったので、さいごにちいちゃんが家族をみつけることができ、わたしはとてもうれし
く思いました。
たくさんの人が死んでしまうせんそうが、せかいからなくなったらいいなと思いました。
															

黒田

はなぼくが一番心をうたれた場面は、ちいちゃんの家族がみんなせんそうで死んだ場面です。なぜなら、みんなせんそうで死んでかなしいからです。 ぼくがちいちゃんみたいにせんそうのある国に住んでいたら、とてもこわい思いやさびしい思いをします。
ぼくは、へいわな国で生まれて、
とてもうれしいです。

前田淳子先生からのメッセージ

７組では国語三年下の教科書を中心に学習しています。その中に「ちいちゃんのかげおくり」という戦争中の悲しい物語があります。それは、ちいちゃんという女の子が、お父さんの出征前日に家族４人でかげおくりをして遊びます。その後空襲によって家族とはぐれ、最後は一人でかげおくりをして、そのままちいちゃんの命も空に消えてしまうという話です。心を打たれた場面を中心に各生徒が感想文を書きました。

海翔ちいちゃんのかげおくりを読んで、ちいちゃんがすごくかわいそうだと思いました。
なぜなら、
ちいちゃんはまだ小さいのにお母さんとはなれてもがんばってにげて生きようとするのが、すごいと思いました。わたしだったらすぐにつかれてしまって、にげられなかったかもしれません。
わたしの心に一番のこった所は、4番目の場面です。
ちいちゃんがさいごの力をふりしぼって、一人でかげおくりをしながら、空の中にかぞくのかげを見つけたところです。そして、ちいちゃんの体がすきとおって、空にすいこまれていきました。
ちいちゃんはやっぱり死んじゃったんだと思うと、
とてもかなしく感じました。でも、ちいちゃんの気持ちをかんがえると、家族のみんなに会えてとてもうれしかったと思います。
わたしは、せんそうがなければ本当によかったと思います。なぜなら、ちいちゃんも死ななくてすんだからです。
これからわたしがしたいことは、せかいをずっとへいわにするようにしたいと思います。
															

嶋崎

佑名一番心にのこった場面は、ちいちゃんがさいごに家族とまた会えたところです。
ちいちゃんは死ぬ前一人ぼっちになってしまい、
とてもおなかがすいていました。わたしは、
ちいちゃんがとても心細くてさみしかったと思います。
ちいちゃんがさいごにまた家族と会えたのはよかったけれど、家族が全員しんでしまったことがわかって、
とてもかなしくなりました。
せんそうがあると、人がころされたり、いっぱいかなしい思いをする人がいたりするので、せんそうがなかったらいいと思います。
													スナイダー真矢ヘイリー		
わたしが一番心にのこった所は、知らないおじさんがちいちゃんをだいて走ってくれた所です。
なぜかというと、みんなにげてたいへんなのに、
ちいちゃんをたすけてくれるなんてすごいなと思ったからです。
せんそうがあると、
ちいちゃんみたいに、お父さんやお母さんとはなれてしまう子どもがたくさんいたけど、もうそんなことにならないように
みんななかよく平和でいたいです。
											ディバイン クリスティーナ梨蓮

わたしの一番うれしかった場面は、ちいちゃんがお母さんとお父さんとお兄ちゃんに会えたところです。
なぜかと言うと、さいしょのかげおくりは、お母さんとお父さんとお兄ちゃんとちいちゃん全員でしたけど、さいごのかげおくりは、
ちいちゃん
一人だけでしたからです。
もし、せんそうがなかったら、ちいちゃんがうれしかったと思います。
どうしてかと言うと、その時にみんな生きている間に、みんなに会えるからです。
													ヘイゼルトン茉那

この物語を読んで、ちいちゃんが天国へ行ってしまった場面が、一番心にのこりました。
ちいちゃんが天国へ行ってしまった時、わたしは、あんなに小さいのに死んでしまうなんて、かわいそうだなと思いました。
『こうして小さな女の子の命が空にきえました。』という言葉が、わたしの心にズキンと一番のこりました。
ちいちゃんは何も悪い事をしていないのに、命をうばわれるなんて、ひどいと思いました。もしせんそうがなければ、ちいちゃんはまだ生きていたかもしれません。でも、せんそうがあって、ちいちゃんが生きのこってしまっても、きっとつらい思いをしたと思いました。
どうしてかと言うと、家族もいないし、家もなくなっているし、食べ物も少なくなっているからです。
こんなにかなしいことがおきるのならば、もう、せんそうがおこらない世の中にしたいと思いました。
