About RE:OPEN JAM

RE:OPEN JAM at Japan Village is a music live performance event held in Japan Village.

Due to the pandemic, a lot of musicians lost opportunities to perform their amazing music. As the New York economy resumes, organizers are hosting these events to support local Japanese musicians and to encourage New Yorkers with the power of great music. The concert series is also a great way to appreciate Japan Village and the sense of Japanese community there.
