Associated Groups
MIT Japanese Wives Group
Throughout the year, the MIT Japanese Wives Group arranges events and activities for its members that take place in a relaxed atmosphere, either on or off campus.
The "Joy of Cooking" class provides a fantastic opportunity to share the joy and passion for cooking with our great American cooking teachers. The class will begin late August or early September and the capacity is limited. Advance registration is required and a small fee to cover the cost of supplies will be collected. The Friendship Partner Program is another activity sponsored by this group. Introductory meetings are arranged for individuals or groups in the MIT community who wish to share their language and culture with Japanese ladies. The main goals of this program are to improve friendship skills and build self-confidence and communications skills.
Our group's activities also extend to Japan. Members returning home to Japan meet each other on a regular basis and help MIT arrivals with cultural and language exchange.
To learn more about the group, contact Kimie Shirasaki at mitjwg@yahoo.com - "English Only" or call the League office at 617-253-3656. Those who are returning to Japan should contact Rika Fujishiro at matsurica_iris_jerboa@yahoo.co.jp about meeting schedules.
