To commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Hyogo Prefecture - Western Australia Sister-State relationship, Hyogo Prefectural Government established their Cultural Centre in Perth in 1992.

The Centre aims to promote Japanese language, culture and exchange by providing a large resource library and conducting various seminars, workshops and activities to cater for all age groups and interests.

Kick off the New Year with some Japanese language lessons!

In 2009 Hyogo Cultural Centre teamed up with Challenger TAFE's Centre for Adult Education to bring you our first ever Japanese Language course. The course proved a great success and thus we are proud to announce the commencement of a new course on Saturday, February 6. This course is fully administered by Challenger TAFE, so please visit their website for more information.

We are also delighted to welcome Mrs. Tomiko Kawaguchi to Perth at the end of this month. A calligraphy teacher with some thirty years experience, Mrs. Kawaguchi will present a workshop at the Centre on Saturday, January 30 from 10am to 12noon. You can find more details here. Come along to learn the basics of this beautiful traditional art and produce your own calligraphy on a shikishi to display in your home. Numbers are strictly limited, so book early to avoid disappointment.

Membership renewals are now due! If you have not yet renewed for 2010, please ensure you do so as you may risk missing out on all of the fantastic event infomation from us!

Finally, we are now in the process of ordering a whole range of new resources for the library. In particular we are focussing on DVDs - movies as well as cultural and language programmes. Even more reason for you to come and visit us in 2010!!

Don't forget Hyogo Cultural Centre is now open all day Saturday.

Office hours are 9am to 5pm, Tuesday to Saturday (closed Mondays, Sundays, and all public holidays)
