Doll Festival/Hina Matsuri Exhibit at UA International Center for Students Beautiful dolls representing the traditional Japanese royal court will be on display in the
tatami room. These precious dolls, which have been handed down from generation to generation, provide viewing pleasure for the whole family and their friends as well. The Doll Festival, which was originally a purification
ritual, represents a day of hope for the growth, happiness, and future of young girls.

Hina Matsuri is celebrated in Japan on March 3rd, Girls Day. One legend says that if a girl displays her dolls for more than three days that she will marry later in life!

Our display will be for the entire month of
March to allow our students an opportunity to
visit this unique and beautiful display.
