Bring Your Own Bento: Japanese Language & Culture Talk - March 2026 (Free)

Have you been thinking about learning a new language but haven’t been able to find the time? The Japan Foundation, Toronto is happy to offer Japanese language and culture talks where we will introduce words and expressions to get you started on the path to learning Japanese! All levels of Japanese learners are welcome to join too!

We will hold 2 sessions providing the same content: in-person at the Japan Foundation, Toronto during the lunch hour (12:00-1:00 pm ET) and online in the evening (6:30-7:30 pm ET). If you are near the Yonge/Bloor area in Toronto, why not stop by during your lunch break and learn more about Japanese language and interesting cultural information? Or join us on Zoom in the evening if that better suits your schedule/location. These sessions are B.Y.O.B. (“bring your own bento“), so please feel free to bring your lunch/dinner with you!

In this session, we will cover the topic of "Japanese Clothing - Traditional to Contemporary". Come join us and learn Japanese words/phrases related to clothing and colours, along with interesting facts about Japanese fashion items including kimono, hakimono and more!

We look forward to seeing you at this event!
