"Hanami Festival...Through the Eyes of Seniors" celebrates the memories of seniors aged 85 to 105. The seniors tell stories of the early years when the Cherry Blossom trees first arrived in Washington. Through reminiscence theatre, you will experience memorable moments and events with the men and women who lived them. The stage production will be preceded by a VIP reception featuring a performance by Suzuki violin students ages 4 to 8 years old.
