About this event
October 7: “The Old man and The Fox” and Chochin-Obake Candy Bag Halloween season is here! Looking for a unique way to celebrate? Meet the yokai , mysterious and magical beings from Japanese folklore. Some are silly and playful, some are a little spooky, and others are friendly and helpful! Join us for a kamishibai storytelling of “Jiisama to Kitsune” or “The Old Man and The Fox,” a fascinating Japanese folktale filled with tricks and surprises. Discover what happens when a mischievous fox plays a clever prank on an old man in this fun tale with a touch of Halloween mischief. After the storytelling, create your own candy bag inspired by one of Japan’s most recognizable yokai , the Chochin-Obake – a traditional paper lantern that has come to life. Take your creation home and use it to collect treats during Halloween!
