☝️ 1 week left to donate to San Francisco Japantown Foundation's Community Fund at charity.gofundme.com/o/en/campaign/heartofjtown
We want to thank Yuichi Yamakawa, President of Kintetsu Enterprises Company of America (KEA), who donated at 🌷 Chrysanthemum Level! KEA first established Japan Center with the 1968 opening of Miyako Hotel (now Hotel Kabuki) and Kintetsu Mall (Japan Center Malls West).
Mr. Yamakawa recalls, "There was 🌸 Sakura Matsuri; activities planned by the Japantown Merchants Association; summer and fall festivals, and the yearly 🍡 mochi pounding at New Years where I was named the “man of physical labor” because I was the youngest staff member...I had to wear a 🎅 Santa Claus suit throughout the entire month of December in 1983!
I want to see SF Japantown continue to exist for the future. Even though our company no longer has property in Japantown, I believe it is still important to support it and I thank the community for the wonderful memories and experiences it has provided me.”

Flower Piano is a massive planning and logistical effort for our collaborators at Sunset Piano, as well as Garden staff and volunteers. It’s an all hands on deck affair. Another key player that helps make sure everything goes smoothly is event sponsor and production partner LEFTWICH Event Specialists. There are so many moving parts behind the scenes. We’re grateful to the Leftwich team for being there in the early mornings and late evenings making sure everything is ready to go for maximum Flower Piano magic!

We immediately miss the pianos... but took the opportunity today to slow down, take some deep breaths, reflect on so many beautiful moments over the past two weeks, and admire the summer Garden. We welcome you to come do the same. Don’t be strangers 🤗
