Our Safety Plan
While much has changed, we are driven to offer the community culturally rich and family-friendly experiences in a safe manner. We look forward to welcoming you in a thoughtful and phased approach, by offering limited capacity time slots. To ensure the health and safety of all our guests, staff, and volunteers, we encourage visitors to book tickets in advance.

We humbly thank your contribution to help honour, preserve, and share Japanese culture and Japanese Canadian history and heritage for a better Canada.
