Welcome to Kizuna's webpage!

Welcome! Kizuna (絆, meaning "bonds" or "ties") is Swarthmore College's Japanese Cultural Appreciation Club.

In the tradition of those before us, Kizuna provides a place to build community around shared interest in Japanese culture for students of varied backgrounds. We promote diversity from within the group by talking about our own heritage and express this value through open and welcoming weekly dinners as well as campus-wide events. Kizuna is a close-knit group where anyone can come say "hi" and have fun. We are committed to amending this statement as the group evolves.
