These festivals are admission free and open to all, regardless of their background. Prior to these festivals, JMG runs Taiko Japanese drumming workshops (9 times in a year).

Taiko workshops are also held for Primary 5 classes of Hillhead Primary School, Glasgow, three times during class hours prior to the Hina Matsuri.

In addition, JMG visits primary schools and secondary schools in Glasgow and beyond to run a workshop on Japanese cultures.     Through our activities, JMG tries to create a space where anyone, incl
