For two centuries, Japanese ports were closed to all but a few Dutch and Chinese traders. On July 8,1853, four black ships led by USS Powhatan and commanded by Commodore Matthew Perry, anchored at Edo (Tokyo) Bay. A United States naval officer, Commodore Matthew Calbraith Perry successfully negotiated with Japanese officials to open Japan's doors to trade. Commodore Perry's diary, historic photos, official documents and a video presentation created in honor of this historic event will be shown for the first time on the West Coast.
The Japan Expo main stage will be filled with entertainment for all ages. Sword demonstrations from local groups as well as a professional group from Japan performing "Chambara" combat demonstrations with two or more swordsmen; short story of a "Ninjya"; professional Taiko player from Okinawa, Japan playing the Miyanaga (Japanese drums); professional musician, Shohei, on the Japanese flute Shakuhachi, playing popular sounds of American and Japanese tunes; a professional singer performing traditional Japanese blues "Enka"; and a fun and entertaining Anime show.
