One goal of the Annual Cherry Blossom Festival is to highlight the beautification and the restoration efforts of the Japanese Garden of Buffalo. Proceeds from this year’s Cherry Blossom Ball ticket sales will help us to plant a Japanese Maple on a small island in Mirror Lake, Rebuild the original Torri (gate) at the garden’s entrance and reinstall a traditional lantern, (Recently vandalized, the lantern was given to us in 1996 by Kanazawa, our sister city in Japan.)
