Gakuensai can be translated to “campus festival.” In Japan, between October and November, many universities showcase their various extra-curricular activities and school programs in a public festival, primarily organized by student committees.


The Japan Society of Boston Gakuensai is a festival where students from various colleges in the greater Boston area will present their schools’ Japanese courses, clubs, events, study abroad programs, and any other resources for those studying or interested in studying Japanese.


Along with highlighting each college’s great offerings, it will be a chance for students to network with like-minded peers who may not normally have the chance to interact between different colleges. 


In addition to universities, relevant organizations will also have booths to offer free resources for students interested in Japan such as career advice, travel support, and more. 


Make sure to stop by the JSB booth where we'll be offering event information/help, raffle prizes, student membership information, and a Japanese book fundraising sale/giveaway. To embrace the spirit of gakuensai, we will also make it a fun event with cultural performances to celebrate our shared appreciation for Japan!


What to expect: 

- local colleges representing Japan-related courses/clubs/events/study abroad programs/resources
