SUMMARY:Designing Places for People to Meet
DESCRIPTION:A Lecture by Japanese Architect Manabu Chiba\nCo-organized by The Azrieli School of Architecture and Urbanism at Carleton University\, The Japan Foundation\, Toronto\, and The Centre for Canadian Architecture\n \nCelebrated Japanese architect Manabu Chiba’s vision encompasses projects of all scales\, from huge public buildings to small private homes. What links his diverse designs is the idea of spaces as “meeting places” designed to facilitate interaction between people. \nIn his first public talk in Toronto\, Manabu Chiba will explain his approach to the design of public buildings and housing\, with an emphasis on creating void spaces within cities to facilitate place-to-place and person-to-person relationships. He will focus on the professional practice of architecture\, and on the ways in which civic buildings are both designed and used throughout Japan with reference to some of his most admired projects including the Japan Guide Dog Center (2006)\, Otaki Town Hall (2012)\, Kogakuin University (2012)\,  and the Tsuruga Multipurpose Centre (2014). \n  \n  \n  \n  \nBiography \nManabu Chiba is the founding principal of Chiba Manabu Architects in Tokyo. The firm  builds projects ranging in size from government offices and residential complexes\, to schools and private homes. He has received several major accolades\, including the Award of Merit in the 2013 UNESCO Asia-Pacific Heritage Awards. Mr. Chiba teaches in the Department of Architecture at the University of Tokyo\, from which he holds both a Bachelor and Master of Architecture. His firm’s work has been published in Manabu Chiba (Equal Books\, 2014) and Rule of the Site (Toto\, 2006). \n  \n  \n  \n   \nImage: Kogakuin University 125th Memorial Education Center

SUMMARY:Japanese Movies at the Bloor Hot Docs Cinema: Wood Job!
DESCRIPTION:Directed by: Shinobu Yaguchi\nStarring: Shota Sometani\, Masami Nagasawa\, Hideaki Ito\n2014\, 116″ (comedy) \nYuki is 18\, a take-life-as-it-comes young lad just out of high school\, where he has failed his university-entrance exams and been dumped by his girlfriend. Looking at pamphlets outlining other options he might follow\, he is captivated by a girl pictured in one of them and signs up for a year as a “green” trainee\, learning the basics of forestry. A month of basic training later\, he ends up in Kamusari\, a village beyond cell-phone service deep in the wooded mountains of rural Japan whose population is outnumbered by the local deer and pit vipers. His instructor/landlord/mentor Yoki is a wild man\, the work is hard\, dirty\, and dangerous\, and Yuki is desperately looking for a way to escape when he realizes that the girl in the picture\, Naoki\, is living right there in the village with him. \nThus encouraged\, he stays on and gradually finds his place both at work and in the village. The question now is the course of his relationship with Naoki\, and his place among the celebrants of a mysterious local festival\, about which the others will tell him nothing… \nPresented by: The Japan Foundation\, Toronto and the Consulate-General of Japan in Toronto\nCommunity Partner: Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre\n\n \n©2014 WJ!PC

SUMMARY:Japanese Movies at the Bloor Cinema: Leaving on the 15th Spring
DESCRIPTION:Directed by: Yasuhiro Yoshida\nStarring: Ayaka Miyoshi\, Shinobu Otake\, Kaoru Kobayashi\n2013\, 114″ (drama) \nJunior high school student Yuna lives with her father on the Okinawan island of Minami-Daito\, population 1\,200. Because the island is too small to support a high school\, students typically move to Okinawa to continue their studies. \nWe meet Yuna during her last year on the island- her older brother and sister have already settled in Okinawa\, and her mother\, who left to accompany her then-teenager daughter\, has chosen to stay there as well. At the end of the year\, Yuna will lead the  student folk music ensemble in playing the traditional farewell song\, Abayoi.  As Yuna prepares to leave her father and her tight-knit community\, she becomes penpals with a handsome student on another island\, while becoming aware of rifts in her own family’s relationships. \nPresented by: The Japan Foundation\, Toronto and the Consulate-General of Japan in Toronto\nCommunity Partner: Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre\n\n \n©2012 “Leaving on the 15th Spring” Film Partners

SUMMARY:Japanese Movies at the Bloor Cinema: The Floating Castle
DESCRIPTION:Directed by: Isshin Inudo\, Shinji Higuchi\nStarring: Mansai Nomura\, Nana Eikura\, Hiroki Narimiya\, Tomomitsu Yamaguchi\, Koichi Sato\n2012\, 145″ (historical action comedy) \nNearing the end of Japan’s long years of civil war\, with Toyotomi Hideyoshi one short step away from finally uniting the land under his rule\, he sends a massive army north against the Hojo clan\, his last enemy. The one stronghold he cannot take is Oshi Castle\, a Hojo outpost in the land of Bushu. Called “the floating castle” because of the lake that surrounds it\, it is under the command of one Narita Nagachika\, an extremely popular ruler known to the people of his domain as “Nobou-sama\,” or “blockhead.” Under Hideyoshi’s orders\, General Ishida surrounds the castle with a force of 20\,000. \nNagachika is\, as his nickname suggests\, not a gifted man at all\, but against the overwhelming resources of the Ishida army\, the forces of this valiant little castle—only 500 cavalry—unite with the common folk in stubborn resistance\, retreating not one step even when Ishida resorts to the extraordinary measure of damming a river to flood them out. \nBut\, with victory in their grasp\, outside events give the story a twist no one would have ever expected… \nPresented by: The Japan Foundation\, Toronto and the Consulate-General of Japan in Toronto\nCommunity Partner: Toronto Japanese Language School\n\n \n© 2011 “The Floating Castle” Film Partners

SUMMARY:December Films at Innis Town Hall: Casting Blossoms to the Sky
DESCRIPTION:Kono sora no hana: Nagaoka hanabi monogatari •この空の花：長岡花火物語\nDirected by Nobuhiko Obayashi/2012 /160 min/blu-ray/colour \nOut of the blue\, newspaper reporter Reiko gets a letter from her ex-boyfriend Kenichi\, inviting her to see the famous Nagaoka fireworks festival and a performance of a play written by one of his students. With newspaper coverage in mind as well\, Reiko decides to visit Nagaoka. \nThe Nagaoka Fireworks Festival was launched in 1947 as a memorial to war victims and a symbol of peace. Filmed in the wake of the Tohoku Earthquake of 2011\, Casting Blossoms also memorializes the victims of this natural disaster. \nDirector’s Message: \nThe ‘Nagaoka Fireworks’ is this metaphor….\n‘If the entire world’s bombs were shot to the sky as fireworks\, war would disappear’ are the words spoken by painter Yamashita Kiyoshi that reinvigorated the life of an elderly pyrotechnician. Behind the scenes\, there were people who had persistently requested to launch fireworks as a Japan-U.S. integrated memorial at Pearl Harbor. The film depicts as drama the form of those very Nagaoka City citizens’ hopes. It is a type of semi-documentary which could be called “essay cinema.” \nTwo years ago\, the “The Nagaoka Film” project was launched\, and upon completion of the script\, the earthquake of March 11th occurred. Then\, in a lodge at the foot of the Yamakoshi hills in Nagaoka\, where the scars of the Niigata Chuetsu Earthquake still linger\, the shooting script was completed. I believe that film is journalism if the ink it is written with is a person’s heart. Let us suffer\, worry\, believe in hope\, and deeply think along with film. That is what is said to be film’s power and beauty. \n-Nobuhiko Obayashi \n\nRegistration\nTo register\, please select the number of tickets and click the “register” button.

As detailed below\, the second workshop in this series will be a session hosted by Hiromi Kijima\, the chief developer of the textbook Marugoto: Japanese Language and Culture. \nAfter the workshop\, there will be a mixer that we hope many people will be able to attend. \nRegistration Deadline: Sunday November 22\, 2015. (Please understand catering cannot be guaranteed for applications received after this deadline) \nTheme: By the author! The whole of Marugoto: Japanese Language and Culture!\nMarugoto: Japanese Language and Culture\, a textbook based on the JF Standard for Japanese Language Education\, is a fun resource for anyone wanting to learn about the Japanese language and culture and striving to become able to communicate in Japanese. Marugoto places importance on students accomplishing tasks given with “Can-do” statements\, contextualized learning through topics and situations\, intercultural understanding\, collaborative learning\, learner autonomy\, and the language acquisition process\, among others. These are all connected to the concept of “Japanese for mutual understanding” which was key to the development of the book. \nWeaving in the above concepts\, in this workshop\, the foundations\, characteristics\, and use of Marugoto will be explained. We believe that you will discover a different world of Japanese language education from that of textbooks that centre on sentence patterns. We look forward to everyone’s questions and opinions. \nWorkshop: 2:30pm – 5:50pm \nMixer: 6:00pm – 8:00pm (A light meal will be served) \nInstructor: Hiromi Kijima (The Japan Foundation Japanese-Language Institute\, Urawa) \nInstructor’s Introduction: Ms. Kijima is a full-time lecturer at the Japan Foundation Japanese-Language Institute\, Urawa. Beyond Japan\, she has also supported Japanese language education as the Chief Advisor at the Japan Foundation London’s Japanese Language Centre\, and developed “CHIKARA” – a Japanese language resource for secondary education. She returned to Japan\, and since 2010 has been working as the team leader in the development of the starter to pre-intermediate JF Standard based textbooks\, Marugoto: Japanese Language and Culture. \nFor inquiries about this workshop: Noriko Saito  nsaito@jftor.org or 416-966-1600 ext. 224

SUMMARY:Teacher Workshop at UBC: "Project Work in Upper-Beginner Classes"
DESCRIPTION:この度、ジャパン ファウンデーション トロントは、ブリティッシュ コロンビア大学との共催で、初級後半の学習者を対象としたクラスにおけるプロジェクト活動とその評価の観点に関する日本語教師研修を実施する運びとなりました。 \nテーマ：初級後半クラスにおけるプロジェクトワーク\n教室で学習した日本語はいったいいつ使うのでしょうか？初級前半・後半である程度の文型や語彙を習得した学習者が実際に日本語を使う場面に遭遇するというのは、海外で日本語を学習している場合は難しいとよく聞きます。インターネットテクノロジーが発達した現代においては、スカイプやソーシャルネットワーキングサービス（SNS）など個々の学習者次第で、自ら日本語へのアクセスを試みることは可能ですが、クラス全体を見渡したときに、どれだけの学習者が実際にそのような形で「日本語」へのアクセスを持っているでしょうか。そこで、今回のワークショップでは教室活動で「日本語を使う」機会について考えてみましょう。教室内外での活動でも学習者が日本語を「手段」のひとつとして利用し、他の学習者と協働しながら自分の考えやアイデアを共有することのできるプロジェクトワークに注目し、その具体的な活動例などを参加者の皆さんでシェアしたいと思います。また、プロジェクトワークの意義や評価の方法などについても一緒に考えてみましょう。 \n講師：　齊藤真美（国際交流基金派遣日本語上級専門家、アルバータ州教育省日本語教育アドバイザー） \n本研修に関するお問い合わせ先：齋藤典子　 nsaito@jftor.org  416‐966‐1600 ext. 224 \nまた、当日の午後には同会場にてVoice of Kakehashi委員会によるシンポジウム（Voices of Kakehashi in Multicultural Canada: Transcultural and Intercultural Experiences）が開催されます。詳しくはこちら（http://www.cajle.info/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/KakehashiPoster.pdf）をご覧ください。 \n  \nThe Japan Foundation\, Toronto and the University of British Columbia are co-hosting a workshop for Japanese language teachers on the topic of on how to carry out and evaluate project work in an upper-beginner language class. \nTheme: Project Work in Upper-Beginner Classes\nWhen do you actually use the Japanese that you learn in the classroom? It’s often said when studying Japanese overseas\, even after beginners have acquired enough sentence patterns\, vocabulary\, etc. it’s difficult to find places to actually use the language. In the age of internet technology\, it is possible for students to use things like Skype and Social Networking Services (SNS) to try and “access” Japanese on their own. However\, from the viewpoint of the whole class\, how many of the students are actually “accessing Japanese” in that way? In this workshop\, we will consider opportunities to use Japanese within classroom activities\, focusing on project work in particular. In project work\, students can use Japanese as one “tool\,” both in and out of the classroom\, and working with other learners can bring their own ideas and opinions together. During the workshop\, participants are invited to share their own specific experiences with project work. We will also consider together the significance of project work and how to evaluate it\, etc. \nInstructor:  Mami Saito\, Japanese-Language Education Advisor\, Alberta Education (sponsored by the Japan Foundation) \nFor inquiries about this workshop: Noriko Saito nsaito@jftor.org or 416-966-1600 ext. 224 \nThat afternoon in the same location there will also be a symposium organized by the Voices of Kakehasi Committee (Voices of Kakehashi in Multicultural Canada: Transcultural and Intercultural Experiences).

SUMMARY:Handcrafted Form: Tradition and Techniques
DESCRIPTION:People in Japan are surrounded by utilitarian craft objects that have been brought into being and nurtured within their daily lives. By making the most of the raw materials of each craft—ceramics\, textiles\, metal work\, lacquerware\, wood and bamboo work\, paper\, etc.—and contriving to use the techniques appropriate to each\, goods have been created that combine ease of use with beauty. \nFollowing the industrial revolution in the West\, Japan also saw the modernization of production during the Meiji era (1868-1912). Through the introduction of machines\, most of the craft objects that until then had been made by hand were replaced by mass-produced\, industrially manufactured goods. Alongside the mechanized production that occurred from the beginning of the Meiji era\, however\, production of hand-made craft objects continued on a smaller scale in independent\, regional workshops throughout Japan. While this workshop system fostered superior artisans\, among those workshop artisans it also gave rise to individualistic\, idiosyncratic craft artists. \nTraditional material and techniques\, rooted in the climate and landscape of every region of Japan\, produced both utilitarian craft objects made by the seasoned skills of artists and art works richly imbued with the creativity of craft artists. Artisans and artists have influenced each other. This mutual influence has contributed to the depth and high quality of Japanese craft as a whole. \nThis exhibition introduces hand crafted objects made from traditional materials with traditional techniques from all over Japan. Representative objects designated as “Traditional Craft Objects” under the Japanese government’s Traditional Manufactured Goods Law form the core of the exhibition\, supplemented by works of craft artists. \nKazuko Todate\nChief Curator\nIbaraki Ceramic Art Museum \nHandcrafted Form Exhibition Hours\n\n\n\n\n	Monday11:30 am - 6:30 pm EXTENDED HOURS\n\n\n	Tuesday11:30 am - 4:30 pm\n\n\n	Wednesday11:30 am - 4:30 pm\n\n\n	Thursday11:30 am - 6:30 pm EXTENDED HOURS\n\n\n	Friday11:30 am - 4:30 pm\n\n\n	Select Saturdays11:00 am - 4:00 pmOctober 17\, 31 November 14\, 28 December 12 January 9\n\n\n	CLOSEDOther Saturdays\, Sundays;\nNovember 11 (Remembrance Day);\nClosed for Christmas and New Year: From December 19\, 2015 to January 3\, 2016

SUMMARY:The Logic and Context of Conformity: Japan’s Entry into International Society
DESCRIPTION:A lecture by Prof. Tomoko Okagaki\, Dokkyo University\nPresented by The Asian Institute at the Munk School of Global Affairs\, University of Toronto; Japan Studies Association of Canada; Japan Futures Initiative\, The Japan Foundation  \nplease note new venue: Jackman Humanities Institute\, Main Floor Conference Room\, 170 St. George Street \nJapan’s 19th century entry into international society was dramatic and fraught with danger. In the four decades after being challenged to drastically alter its position in international society in 1853\, Japan reinvented itself as a modern sovereign state\, shedding its long-standing isolation and political practices. Faced with the crucial task of responding to existing Western norms of international society\, Japan’s leaders chose to conform. \nIn contrast with the majority of historically-focused inquiries\, Professor Okagaki introduces a political science perspective into the central questions of Japan’s internationalization. Why did Japan join the Western state system without voicing as much resistance as other Asian countries? How\, in turn\, did Japan’s entry affect international society? How did Japan balance international and domestic constraints and resources? What implications does the Japanese experience hold for other countries today in their encounters with prevailing international norms? \n  \n  \n  \nTomoko Okagaki is Professor of Political Science at Dokkyo University in Saitama\, Japan. She holds a doctorate in Political Science from the University of Michigan. She was a visiting student at the University of Toronto and University of British Columbia\, and a visiting scholar at both Harvard University and Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne \nProfessor Okagaki’s research interests include\, state socialization\, Asian regionalism\, and international political relations. She is the author of numerous publications including The Logic of Conformity: Japan’s Entry into International Society (2013)\, and co-translator of Kenneth Waltz’s Theory of International Politics (2011). \n  \nOchiai Yoshiiku.
