Feb. 24-25: Matsuri: A Festival of Japan

Going to get sushi isn't the only way to put some Japanese culture in your life. Those who are interested in the Asian country can sample all things Japan through Matsuri: A Festival of Japan at the Heritage and Science Park.

Now's your excuse to go kimono shopping, since the traditional Japanese garment serves as this year's theme, and you can wear it as you peruse exhibits on Japanese history and traditions.

There will also be martial arts demonstrations, fashion shows and music on three entertainment stages, plus arts and crafts, fun for the kiddies and bonsai plant displays. And you can chow down on authentic Japanese grub as you go through the festival.
