I was able to buy a couple kimonos at Omatsuri. They’re beautiful, and I love the fact that the money was going to a good cause. Will you be selling more at other events? I would like to support you with more purchases.
Hello Donna,
Thank you for supporting the Calgary Buddhist Temple. Happy to know you like the kimonos! We are not 100% certain of the availability of kimonos because we rely on donations. The temple ( in Bridgeland) will hold a fundraising dinner in October and will have a “Things Japanese” sale of donated items and hope to have some kimonos for sale.
Sincerely,
Yuko Ono
