The Story of Shofuso

Monday, May 13, 7:00 pm

Shofuso is a 17th century-style Japanese house with associated residential gardens that reflects the history of Japanese culture in Philadelphia. Designed by architect Junzo Yoshimura, Shofuso was built in Japan in 1953 using traditional techniques and materials. It was shipped to New York and exhibited in the courtyard of the Museum of Modern Art in New York before moving to its current location in 1958. Join us for a historical tour of Shofuso, presented by the Japan America Society of Greater Philadelphia. Please visit www.mcl.org to register to receive the link to program.
