Mata Ashita is a space for Japanese Canadian creatives to share their craft, receive guidance, and connect with one another.

We meet via Zoom for readings, conversations, and writing workshops with celebrated Japanese Canadian writers.

We hope that these events will engage Japanese Canadians in meaningful conversations around creativity, connection, and community.

Mata Ashita means see you tomorrow, and for us, that means a promise to take care of ourselves and each other. Japanese Canadian writing has long been a medium through which our community has found incredible power and meaning, and we hope to continue this tradition with writers new and old.
