Upcoming Events
Join us for Origami & Snacks!
Celebrate Children’s Day on May 5 (3:30–5:30 PM) at the JASC After School Open House.
This free family event features hands-on origami and Japanese treats.
Please note that this is not a drop-off event—we’d love for families to participate and explore our space together!
JASC is partnering with the Field Museum for an Educator Symposium!
Join the Field Museum, in collaboration with the Japanese American Service Committee, at Shared Stories, Shared Future: An Educator Symposium on AANHPI Histories and Belonging. This event celebrates the culmination of a three-year journey exploring Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) histories and stories through education, community partnerships, and museum learning.
The event will feature a screening of Making Waves: The Rise of Asian America, a film by JJML Productions, followed by a panel discussion with educators and young advocates who helped champion the TEAACH Act in Illinois. Breakout sessions, cultural activation stations, and cultural performances to follow. Field Museum Connections: AANHPI stories and the TEAACH Act programming is made possible with the generous support of the Cyrus Tang Foundation.
