The Phoenix Japanese Friendship Garden is hosting a free Children's Day and Kite Festival! The festival will feature cosplay, a shortened term for 'costume play,' where people dress up as characters from the comics, cartoons and science fiction. There will be two martial arts demonstrations - Swordmanship and Chanbarra. Attend an abbreviated tea ceremony, tour the garden and visit the 'Dress Up' booth where children can get dressed up in kimono or martial arts costume and have their picture taken. Kites will be flying all day. Bring from home, buy at the Festival or made on site. Kite Master Tom Manson will be there with his stunt kites. There will also be Japanese food and drink, live music and dance. The Garden will also be open for regular visitors.
