**NOTE: The JASA Annual Dinner on February 17, 2022 has been canceled. JASA was eager to hold its annual dinner in-person this year; however, the on-going surge of COVID-19 and the resulting strain on our healthcare systems led to a reassessment of our plans. We have decided not to host our Annual Dinner event in person to prioritize the health and safety of our members, guests, their families, and our communities.
We plan to announce a virtual program in the coming months to celebrate Alabama’s Japanese companies, Japanese culture, and Alabama’s many important connections to Japan. Please stay tuned for more information. We hope that you will be able to join us virtually later this year and look forward to seeing you in person at future events when we can safely resume our program.
About the Annual Dinner...
Each year, the Japan-America Society of Alabama hosts a special reception and fundraiser to allow our members and guests from all over Alabama to gather, network, and dine with a special program to celebrate the JASA community. We recognize New and Expanding Japanese Companies across the state, hear from JASA leadership about our community's mission and goals, and honor the recipient of the 2021 Samuel Ullman Award.
