The San Fernando Valley Japanese American Community Center

We are immensely grateful to our many volunteers who take care of the Center and one another. Whether you are interested in traditional Japanese cultural classes or modern team building activities that are inter-generational, you will find your place here. Thank you to the organizations and clubs for making SFVJACC our home away from home.

As you know, the temperature in the valley can reach 110 degrees. SFVJACC members enjoy a healthier temperature during Senior Hot Meal on Tuesdays and Fridays, or when they check out a book from the Japanese and English collection in the conference room library. It's heavenly!

Submit a photo of yourself with your own Kagami Mochi Display creation and a picture of your display by itself for a chance to win a prize!  Your display can be the real deal or an artistic creation if you don’t have access to Mochi.  Get creative and do what you can to make your creation stand out!
