International Festival this weekend!

 This weekend, another festival will be held, but this time, it will be primarily run by international students—the Tohoku University Foreign Students Association (a.k.a. TUFSA). This 28th Tohoku University International Festival will start at 11:00 on Sunday, November 10 at Sanjo Junior High School, which actually sits just next to University House Sanjo (most FGL students live there).
 A big stage will be prepared, and you will be able to see a fashion show of various ethnic costumes, singing and dancing by international students. If you look around, quite a large number of food stalls can be found. They will offer international cuisine, and you will have the opportunity to taste cooking from more than 20 countries.
 Entrance is free. For the food stalls, you can pre-order food tickets for 1,000 JPY from members of TUFSA, or buy them online (currently tickets cost 1,200 JPY).
 This is a great chance to experience many different cultures at once, so why don’t you join us?!? It will be fun!!
