Volunteering in Matsuri

Matsuri's primarily intend is to provide a "place" and "experience" for all to interchange cultural understandings and inspire children, the traditional Japanese values. So, Matsuri is a free-entrance event, and as the scale of the event enlarges, we ask for help from the volunteers to run the event with us.
