The purpose of Santa Fe JIN is to introduce the unique culture of Japan and to provide opportunitities for those who wish to participate in the cultural diversity of Santa Fe. Our activities focus on creating a platform for multicultural communications in Northern New Mexico. We aim to promote understanding of Japanese traditions and practices through hosting fun and educational programs, the most prominent being that of the Japanese Festival (Matsuri). We also encourage cultural exchanges to expand the relationship between Santa Fe and Japan for further mutual understanding. It is our pleasure to provide support and information to our members so that we can work as acultural bridge in this global world.
