Members' Corner
We want to hear what sparked your connection to Japan! The Japan Society Members' Corner is a space for members to share their favourite memories of Japan and their involvement with the country’s cultural traditions, cuisine and people.
By collecting together members' memories and favourite moments, we will document and strengthen our unique community of passionate individuals, companies and organisations.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank both our individual and corporate members/donors for their continuous support and look forward to receiving your contributions!
