Important Update on our 2020 Arts & Craft Boutique Event
To Midori Kai Boutique Customers:
Midori Kai, Inc. hopes that you and your family are staying safe during this unprecedented Coronavirus pandemic as we all Shelter in Place in our homes. Unfortunately, we do not know when it will be safe to gather in large groups, therefore, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the “live” September 12, 2020 Midori Kai Arts & Craft Boutique, held at the Mountain View Buddhist Temple Gym. Despite the Midori Kai Boutique cancellation, we still want to support the newly selected 2020/2021 Non-Profit Recipients, who are as follows:
- Asian Pacific American Leadership Institute
- Japanese American Museum – San Jose
- Nichi Bei Foundation
- Suzume No Gakko
We are looking into the possibility of setting up a Midori Kai E-Commerce Boutique site to be held on the same September 12 weekend. After we have made a decision to host an online Boutique or not, we will notify our mailing list via email and will post information on this website after July 1, 2020.
Stay safe…
Phyllis Osaki and Marsha Baird, Midori Kai Co-Chairpersons
