New Upcoming Movies link on SAJCC website
In Spring 2018 I noticed that there were a lot of Japanese movies (animated and regular) on the Loft Cinema (3233 E. Speedway Blvd.) website.
Of course I had been posting them on our Calendar for years, but realized that we needed a separate link for Upcoming Movies, highlighting the beautiful movie posters. So for these Japanese movies, please go to:
This new link is also on the top bar of our website as “Upcoming Movies”.
August/September schedule (updated):
“Cowboy Bebop: The Movie – Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door” – August 15 and 16 at the Loft
“Howl’s Moving Castle” – Aug 31 to Sept. 3 at the Loft
“The Sword of Doom” – Sept. 2 at The Screening Room
“The Night is Short, Walk on Girl” starting September 7 at the Loft
“Gamera Triple Feature” on September 8 at the Screening Room
Other movie theaters featuring Japanese films will also be added to this link, such as The Screening Room (127 E. Congress St.), The Fox Tucson Theatre (17 W. Congress St.), on the UA Campus, or at church sites in Tucson.

The class may be supplemented with other fun Japanese activities such as Origami as time permits. This will be a new cultural experience for American students to taste what Japanese children enjoy eating and to experience Japanese activities. Returning students are welcome.”
